Prayer
I invite you back
…………….. dear wildness dear
…………………………………….. unfathomable formless
…………………….. universe of expansion
you alaap and scat
……………………. of tongue and throat
come seed me
……………….. my ground I’ve prepared
……………………………… ready for divinity
make day of my night
revolution in my field
come burn
……………. fallow grass
…………………………. and mustard alike
and I will string your each flame
……………………………………………. about my neck
until you flare into me
…………………. and I like you burn
……………………………………………. beyond recognition
