THE POET PSALM (for EED and RWE)
Circumference her master trope –
Her minor turn is prose
Of dialectic opposites –
The arguments men pose.
She runs a Circuit round the Word –
Her purpose is to ring
The bells of periphrastic hymn –
Her “business is to sing”
Domestic is her universe
Beneath – beside – above –
Beyond antithesis she brings
Economy of love.

Sing, poet, sing.
Let ancient memory
Bring
To the present,
An ancient power.
Lost on the earth,
For some long time now -
A Kolob hour.
I like the idea of a Kolob Hour! You should write another poem about that with more details?
The economy of love is the reason why we prosper. When peoples hearts turn hard, things go wrong.
