WHY ALL THIS TALKWhy all this talk of the Beloved,
Music and dancing,
And
Liquid ruby-light we can lift in a cup?
Because it is low tide,
A very low tide in this age
And around most hearts.
We are exquisite coral reefs,
Dying when exposed to strange
Elements.
God is the wine-ocean we crave--
We miss
Flowing in and out of our
Pores.
