Now to say
Something about God
Whom I do not know
A phantom lover
Cupid to Psyche
Embodied in the night
Gone by morning
And there the myth must end
For there’s a presence
Always
In the day
In all the hours
Probably in nanoseconds
In the smallest things
Perhaps
Angels dancing with electrons
‘Round the nuclei ephemera
Of thought
And awareness
Then the lovers meet
Again in dreams
Where we might talk
Words becoming solid
Resting in the liquid
Like a loving cup provided
Of the night
Out or which
We drink
Words and meaning
Clearly
In the night
Which might work
For a spiritual life
Except that in the daytime
There are daytime expectations
Who really stays
Who really goes
I make up things
For fear
Of isolation
And a longing for solidity
For the God who’s always there
