Come Mystery To Me
October 28, 2017
Come mystery, and be to me a good and honest friend,
Impart here an allottment, string your solemn alembic strands
Wind rolled up mists of circumstance which twitched, bewitch with glamours
Carry your feet apace here, I would your untaught enamours
Along the moonlit paths half covered over lights play splash
On leafy clothings stipple, rippling swathes of neat panache
Their sounds in circles rush in send assent’s petitions plucking
Out those who deem you wondrous; by supersensual cherry picking
Yet natural you are and with us wear through absent days
Your signs adjunct swear majesty, pass muster heaven’s assays
Going out as mirth possessed a banging shaking clashing bronze
To move us every heart, and every conscious temple cleanse
Your worth, your birth, proclaiming, speaks advertently your name,
But does not drag it under, O, life giver over techno-gains
A stream which breathes existence, serves enamours, works us play
Its carded skeins a repertoire presents magic display
Anon our mortal circle throws fit invitations all away
They cannot hear you feel you; are time’s redactors, underplay
To backwardness all inkling, repressing fervent flight flung wings
God’s life’s a board abundant; whets the appetite hope bring
