Entered Brethren Ordainment Sermon
“What has been will be again.
There is nothing new under the sun.
It was all here already, long ago.”
“What has been will be again.
There is nothing new under the sun.
It was all here already, long ago.”
“ … the ashes of the earth
are the edge of this town.”
Where is there a Lodge
Of Master Markers,
Who’s moon-body has surfed
Beyond the already-traversed marble?
Is it from the east?
Is it to the West?
Could it be farther South,
Or even closer north?
Could the albatross
Have already flown across,
Leaving the mariner’s quiver,
but only the motion of chilled skin?
