some people stand between you and the Sun
as if only they could mediate all that gold
and they are the smoked glass or the obscured one
protecting you from all eclipse
except that when they're in the room
you barely see your own shadow.
break = free.
learn to see what you see
with the kind mediation
of the Holy Ghost
even whose shadows are green
the green of trees new sprung
the roots go deep
deep in to the first green
the thundering whisper of God
over chaos.
