Whit One 21/06/96

Christ became whit small
died on a whit of wood

God impaled on a splinter dies?
Quick-sensitive the heart of God replies

When it was time
no lick came
to ease him

spittered with mouth-oil
that eased the easy words
of recognition
he,
unstained,
stained ill

he,
appraised by sick justice
promoted by uncourted selection,
and elevated,
will wholly loft us

beyond staining

he,
exposed
hoisted on bleak, wooden hearts
exposes bark and grain

yet he,
arms wide, drift gathers,
loves us more than we would

Loving and being loved
till love day come.
