Chill of 2 A.M.!
An unrequited priest
...sacristy and
flowers!
The small vase
in a painting that calls out to God
like tears
shed
for the human race
...the clock!
The roses stem!
Brisk silence of such
hours
as would fall to their abyss
without the burning notion,
still life and painted
ocean
of your kiss...
