On the banks of the great
books of theology
I will decipher Your eyes
On the reverse of Your dogmas
Dictatorships dictionaries
I will learn your name
And the strength and how to say it
And the hunger to kill it
Thy kingdom come
On the back cover of the lexicon
On the paycheck of the exegesis
On the counter way of dogmatics.
Thy kingdom come
Against the grain of the Verb (flesh)
(better never rather than a part)
