Pedastles of Truth / by Zander Ford

Galaxies spin

Across space-time

One fragmented snapshot

Of God’s great

Mystery dance-rhyme

 

Facts facts facts

Persist as though

They are heir to the righteous throne

And yet

Mystery of unknowing

Rules all

On its own

 

It doesn’t need high-backed chairs

Pedestales of soap

To declare

 

It’s righteousness of truth

 

Any common sleuth

Would sit upon them

and stare

In awe of her majesty

In awe of their insignificance

Of their facts

 

And yet

Still

We cling

To what we think we know

In favor of

Witnessing this genius

This mystery show

 

Let me paint it for you

With Words of Light

What happened to you

Never did

And did...

 

Depending

On your sight
