Poems about Poetry
sealed appropriate
by kapardeli eftichia
Separated trees in
corridor of the monastery
The lemon tree the wrist bent
and chestnut nude
Persons in the sacred cistern
mirrored the hidden
saintliness
Rose petals in gold
embroidery with heavy gospel and prayer
thin lines shadows
when the body turns on the Sun
where salvation is
the fiery fruit of desire
Here’s bodies
Angels serve
Invincible faith in times of
the purity of decency looking
the bank seal with myrrh
holding the appropriate
seeking new ways to reach
God
“fixed my heart in the Lord”
Hymns, Cherubim
Candelabra, wooden bells
and read after
Compline, the cedar bench
the lamp and igneous
Angels with spears in a
vigil
in a continuous prayer
