NON COSMOS MENTIS

                    NON COSMOS MENTIS
                    (She would not have me)


I will tell you a secret              I do not bring light, but
from my solitude                      a lesser darkness;
not only did they deny             the denial, the crucifixion, the way,
the truth, but also                     the light which illumines
the denial…                             the darkness -
be with me Lord,                     in the midst of my comforters,
when evening’s finger             points to me,
folds me in,                              and darkness hides me;
forgetting                                 nothing...
that only eternity                     She would not have me
lasts forever.                           She would not have me
                                                She would not have me.
