Twelve men in the beginning
reporting unto God
Ten Commandments to proclaim…
devotional synod

Sacred by their nature born
each man immortal bound
Divinity in every word
salvations thorny crown

Choices come and choices go
judgment waits beyond
The weight incumbent, buried deep
embedded in a psalm

Nine will cloister, locked in place
the future theirs to choose
Decisions based on marble text
—Noah’s Ark in view
