Dominion
In the darkness--
The space between stars--
Creation's manifest
In mysteries stark.
Without light, unseen:
Dark matters wrought.
Caged birds caw to see
And speculate silhouette-marks:
From Eden,
Cast far;
The fruit was the key--
But we are of sight
And do we breathe
In absence of light?
For there He dwells,
And He called for light--
The abrasions of black--
And thereafter, Earth
And matters in our eyes,
Feeble and small
Under matters unseen.
Hark, our God:
Enigma unseen,
The caged bird fathoms,
Though never greets;
He is infinity--
He encircles--
Distant stars inside space:
Darkness omnipotent, blackness infinite.
Always was,
Always is,
Always will be:
The Alpha, Omega, The Alpha,
Indestructible, induplicable--
Committing matters dark
In mysteries stark.
