Your Cathedral
“
You draw from me broken now holy that yes
The Gemstone Line
How does it sound? Why does it work?
The poem
Walking in what I know is your cathedral now
The stone work, the bird song
The endless repatterning of leaves
I move the way my prayer-kin move
The trees
Each rising hand reaching, each roaring lung breathing
Each mind wide and opening
The no of my hopelessness torn from my throat
I am yes.
You draw from me broken now holy that yes
I am yes.
