Poetry list
easter freefall
the descending lift
a premonition of
the taking the
taking into the
realm we never
control taken to
the hilltop death
of dark eclipse
and agonised
despair it is
the forsakenness
that reveals a
step a flight
an open door
from mind and
form into a
light that is
substantial and
scarred the glory
forged in the
shrieking hours
of human time
and met by the
silence of celestial
music reason is
irradiated and
riven by the
open outstretched
arms of welcome
where we are held
by love now by
nails yet ever
after in in
accessible bliss
