The daytime of renewal

Cobwebs swept clean of spiders
fissures patterning the floor:
signs of the self in transition 
of figments falling apart.

The scent of perfume invades me
natural from bodies being out 
as the new day runs towards ev'ning 
as life is sweated out

Dawn had grabbed the daylight 
dusk has snatched the night
 taking each into their chamber 
for the renewing of their love

Wild the breeze in my cranium
  slow the pace of my breath 
as the daytime of renewal 
turns my feet toward another crest 

Augustine, for sure, is accurate
 when speaking of the heart:  
in God alone fulfillment  
in God, one's life is art




All our God-talk doesn't mean we are God-imbued or God-focused because God can still be used as a gun to keep people in line or to be eliminated.
