great weights
to give praise while
we set aside our silent
alleluias.
what gives us
cause to build with
symbols, brick upon
storied pages, is
the opportunity
to teach us
generosity,

hidden there small
flecks of flesh
and spotted blood,

swinging in the
breath of god,
as sounds
from the bells
summoning us
to sleep.
