I Am Blessed

she swings like a pomegranite,
inside me
pushing grit 
and saved from
falling rivers
at three in the morning
while withdrawn 
mysteries matter unto themselves

Such miraculous beauty abounds
cradled in the deepest prayer
a wonder, an answer, my wishing well coin

Sitting with the Sunday cherub of penance, 
and shame, and consequence.
I am not sorry.

Sin sitting like a sun
cutting my tongue
babbling.

Disdain, disgust,
hiding from memory 
forming into corners of silent mouths
Paste-up or perceiving
Twitching reaction stilled by 
another
Now is not for disappearing.

I sing down to her.
I delight in her touch.
I am blessed.
