faithache

faithache

(on listening to johann sebastian bach 24/7)

a new ravine opens
blue-black with mist, coniferous
vociferous to trumpets

a preying bird traces
coiled springs of air
unfurling
from heaven
lazybones, coasting
to soaring strings

clear
aerial
incantation

cresting exaltation
breathless
crick-necked, agape – again!

until i ache

surfeit: union
pure.

a meek surrender:
if this is faith
i cannot reach
