Already
This already is the love of God:
The sunlight will not thicken,
The caress of air will not
become a kiss.
The threat of death will never,
No never, no never, no never
Be removed.
In your dying ye shall die,
And die and die and die;
You will be naked
and homeless;
And this meager earth
Will be blessed into oblivion.
This already is:
The love of God.
