Res Nova... New Thing

New way to speak. Silence is preferable, being the humble aphasia that allows it cannot measure up to the task of speaking of The Holy. New way...



Litany

Mary, Miriam, holy Mother...
autumn tanager!
passenger of time:
owl of foresight,
goldfinch teenager,
child-sung blue of robin.
habitat and grassland -
prairie falcon eyes -
niched on high places!
bluegrass and winterfat,
squirrelgrass, wheatgrass,
tumbleweed and sage!
Lady sachem paint the world
with the autumnal palette!
I want some cloth of this color!
Hey! A cloth to give my sweet one!
She will make a coat of it!
