Taller than saint Peter A lover Stood on wooden stilts Varnished in tangential light I could have been blind, for you were not A seraph but a dream. But what of dreams, of tombs of consecrated fiction- A currency of lies Demarcated latin annuit coeptis. And yet I was abounded by sleep And who said there could not be More on Heaven and Earth Than in my philosophy Of you. And your blunted foundation Quivering at the knees
