they shut up the prophet, then and now, they wound the one who brings the word ...

See here

deep

she is a stone sleeper
kissing the night's air
the light shines in her eyes
towards the fixed point
from the variable axis ...

he is a bronze statue
touching the edges of day
the light comes through his smile
above, below, around
the moving figure of her ...

deepest deep

another shade of darkness
another layer hovers shivers and covers
the waters of the deep
a veil of darkest dark shimmers
this night foul
as a fistful of whispered lies rise

"all are hunters now"

another shade of lightness

another layer hovers shivers and covers

the waters of the deep

a veil is lifted 

o lightest of light your rays

penetrate even the deepest of nights

opened handed, full of rising song

"the battle hard-fought is won - 

come now, worship the Son"

the spell of evening cast

the spell of evening cast

love worn 

trembles like a so-thin

curtain in the open window

breeze

voices fade 

with the dying light

as silence creeps in

and settles into 

the so-long night

leaf

falls through fragile air

light shining upon tree tops

autumn glow on faces turned 

to go
