conquest
truth and beauty
beauty and truth
mysteries more
than concepts
engulfing our
conscious partial
days and opening
us to the eternal
whose name is
written as love
being that dies to
share and
heal completing
our finitude as
feast and glory
demolished and
remade beyond ken
is this a victory never
temporal but an over
coming of unmerited
inexpressible love
words music paint
form ideas even
silence fall away
as we are conquered
vanquished liberated
in and through
the breath that leads
us away a
way for
ever
