during a starless, sleepness night
when thoughts and feelings
are confused yet strong
I hear
Corelli's measured, jubilating voices
praising God
and sense
a master's pride
immodest
in its musical perfection
of transcendental adoration
reach out through centuries
the voice of human suffering
expectant of salvation
yet defiant
sounding victorious
even in its most humble moment
of timed defeat
the beauty of power
born of fragility
