+ 9TH POEMS: θυσίαν αἴνεσις *Then Was I In His Eyes As One That Found Favor* [Song Of Solomon 8:10]
Oh Lord, let my soul, that You have redeemed, get naked
during each experience of Your glorious Presence.
Teach my soul, in moments like pristine Eden, what is sacred,
and to be witnessed in my poetry, during its efflorescence.
J-Called
Author's Notes/Comments:
In the first line, I wanted to use a phrase from college, "get naked," (which referred to, then, intimate encounters between students), in a much more sacred way.
