desert the black cloak
profane worldly garb
for terrestrial graves
hear the mystical lyric
step outside existence
find the infinitesimal axis
from camelhair tombstone
to flaring white shroud
ego flown to the hem
of its circling proximity
sense of self altered a
body transformed into
essence of movement
keep faith with the
turning the turning the
turning toward rapture
From my book Ephemera
