Forget every idea of right and wrong
Any classroom ever taught you
Because an empty heart, a tormented mind,
Unkindness, jealousy and fear
Are always the testimony.
You have been completely fooled!...
One day you finally knew
what you had to do, and began,
though the voices around you
kept shouting
their bad advice
though the whole house
began to tremble... and you felt the old tug
at your ankles.
"Mend my life!"

the way a child can a ball...
A chalice - the Grail - my body became, for it held the Christ
and he drank

though most with closed eyes.
A holy relic is each creature,
and beauty may worry
about its comeliness waning.
