A Saintess-stained—upon a layered pane set before priory and austere eyes: the shallow-sighted hallow marks the smile in painted calm, but not tempest-inside. Somber-sister, holy in her ache— Eternal sings hymn-internal psalm, “Onerous, is the caring heart. Expects excuse, does the perspicacious mind”. My dear, you are unfair to self. They see the pane on-surface; You, the pane behind. - Is a picture, perfect— Worthy, worth thee worship? Lines, shapes: proportional, aligned? No. Divinity is found In Handmade brush, in trembled hand; As weeping, Grinning—thoughts Seep to create And nurture life Like rain to grass-strewn-soil; It lives where worlds-apart entwine and meet; Converge, collide, crash And, in their meeting, change: where sea meets shore and salt remakes the land— No, my dear— Divinity is found In perfect-imperfections, to discerning crowd. In challenges, overcome. Not in lacking/forestalled steps, Not in angled-shapes, nor paint Beyond the bounds. There is no truth In easy proofs; “Is a replaced street-sign, ‘art’?” Only the crazy-stupid; Brave, Fumble charge—against the dark. Would they, so soon, Return to feet, If divide between “life and meaning”, Necessarily ended in state of despaired-stark? Probably not… So, Let the inorganic window- keep its lines. Through chapped-chapeled, colored-fracture, let your trying-genius shine. And when despair Brings forth, ‘demure’, Keep an origin-unique, in mind For it is Within the “blur”; Wherein meaning is refined, Where one finds comforted faith, In the courageous steps Of heartfelt-thought, divine.
