Fire!!!eyes blazed with blindness from seeking
After God’s veiled face;;;seeing his glory

Only in its passing-by. White-washed eyes
Left vacant in his waning. In the

Morning,,,just out of the shower,,,a rugged
Face with whiskers, still flush with fleeting dreams,

Gazes back out of glass—reflecting
Rev’rential awe; this!!!is God’s glory

Passing-by. Now and then I see through the
Flaming veil the many fashioned faces

Of God. I had forgotten their lin’age
And mine,,,and not enough seen his constant

Passing-by. “Glory to God in the highest,,,
And on earth wonder for his passings-by.”


i. Kyrie eleison
ii. Gloria
iii. Credo
iv. Sanctus
v. Agnus Dei
