Say the words you
Want me to say,
Whisper them into
My ear, the right words,
The holy words, the words
You want me to hear.
Cast away the present tense
The parting child constrains,
Build and forge the dying
Cause, the onward human
Breed, the wearing thin
Abrasion night in silent serpent
Creed, the mother’s fight against
Her chance decline, whose
Dominion liveth for ever,
Hold fast unto these righteous
Words and dole them out
According to their need.
Say the words you
Want me to say,
Tell me what we must
Do, to flail the ways
That come between us,
And fulfill their partial meanings
Until no empty cup remains.
