Adeptus

 

Grady McMurtry

 

7 November 1941

 

 

Brooding eyes, apish browed,

What wierd surmise lurks there endowed

With formless substance!

Thought

A gray blurred sphere

Ringed and glowing

Jagged rents

Flashing, twisting

Dissolved and warpted

Tight coils of hate

Clashing, chaotic.

 

Smooth sweeping girders

Looping curves

Strange arcs that lead

A somewhere vague

Stark time is gone

And in its place

A central fire

A bridge of suns

All motives and

All loves are one

To Him whose Will

Because is done.
