God’s Circumference

Hand of God the Father (Albrecht Durer)

One ‘n a half theologians.
A near-empty airport.
Room enough (and time)
to talk
to walk
in great circles
together
to try
and determine
God’s circumference.

Suggestions of God
and Others
within reach of genre,
given faces,
given form-
beautiful distractions,
genuine actions-
Iconic
in spite of themselves.

Trust
when two or more gather
at the bottom of a glass of cider
assembling
in honour of honest heretics,
swiping at fraudulent piety,
thank God for the variety
the faces,
the forms
that end,
begin,
and move within
His circumference.


For Andre.

Ovation

A standing ovation

on one’s feet

above one’s station

on one’s seat

adulation

on repeat

expectation

in defeat

procrastination

a quick retreat

from salvation

on  one’s feet

above one’s station

on one’s seat

an ovation.
