forte-fievre:




To believe in God is to love


What none can see. Let a lover go,


Let him walk out with the good


Spoons or die


Without a signature, and so much


Remains for scrubbing, for a polish


Cleaner than devotion. Tonight,


God is one spot, and you,


You must be one blind nun. You


Wipe, you rub, but love won’t move.



Jericho Brown, Another Elegy
