Shall we bend the knee to our
reasons?
Multitude they are.
Shall we kneel before
Lady Reason,
dressed in red as she approaches the tower
we once knew to be sacred?
Don't suppose to prevent presuming
on profane and not priestly.
Quickly.
Before I enshrine this fine line
of wit over wailing.
Before I down my idolatry
with the well-mixed wine
of disembodied logic.
Before that which is immanent
is the only remnant.
Remember.
Remember God is not confined to
ordinary lines.
Remember he is closer than
your heart beat,
even thought it can't be heard.
Remember that through your rendering,
he is the one re-membering you.
May we never lose our wonder.
May we never lose our wonder and awe.
May we never lose our wonder and awe and
imaginative liturgies.
You are the God who dances and winds us up
to love you.
You are the trinitarian poiesis,
the fount of exchange.
Make of us a kingdom,
of priests and poets.
