Porch & Altar

can i wait here, yes I will wait
(where else would I go?)
to be taken deeper
into the full measure of delight
grace draws me across the threshold
to search out this deep mystery
hidden for me in stillness:
beauty beyond measure
grown in a transparent heart
sent to weep across this outstretched reality
preparing desire for a kairos moment
putting oil into my lamp
and you align the perfect circle with me
