”We become more disinclined to conceive of God as dominating power the more we see power’s double face.” Desmond, G&B 317
Chaos in the cove.
Urgency churning foaming
in the middle in-
distinguishable
white wings of two furious
swans. So worth watching
as absolute forms
absolve themselves of the weight
of sublimity.
