Down through the tomb's inward arch
He has shouldered out into Limbo
to gather them, dazed, from dreamless slumber...
A Door in the Hive (1989)

first, in Divine patience, and know
hunger again, and give
to humble friends the joy
of giving Him food — fish and a honeycomb.
A Door in the Hive (1989)

will my self hold still, but wanders
anywhere,

You are the stream, the fish, the light,
the pulsing shadow.
You the unchanging presence, in whom all
moves and changes.

at the fountain's heart
the sapphire I know is there?
A Door in the Hive (1989)
Lord, not you,
it is I who am absent.
