Revelation 22:11

KJV(i) 11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.

Blessed providence

resting my eyes,

on your forehead,

rim of your brows,

there I set my lips paving my soul’s bricks of gold.

.

Thanking for this “yellow road” of yours,

field of daisies for my naked nature spread

Good Gospel carrier

through dessert, recluse, on camel.

.

Let, dearest God, this expand last till my end

In the cradle,

Above the root of thy precious nose,

Where smiling eyes meet

Then and there

Most intimate

grace pray

love make

eyes blinded by kisses flood

Seeing perpetually this glance of ember ease, beauty and joy

Self-combust

.

Place

of me curled as a signet,

your toes tucked in my body heat,

I a footrest.
