Buildings for the most part are boxes square. But Pentecost circles and spirals, they turn and burn wild. Of those who would tame and make comprehensible any fire-- apt tongues have gone titch titch and beautiful catch 'til words and music and parlor diplomacies fortify much which is untrue. Fear has no finish, even in our dying. The path is a cliff edge. Let us turn, un-adult-like, and strip ourselves   of civilized persuasions. Usher Earth's children into primordial worlds. Water shall love and receive us, as it always has. The naked ground will speak up, into our touching feet. Listen to the tongues of the wind. Unhinge the body, which is you. Let all creation fly.

Pentecost
