The Gathering

By Georgina Yael Johnson




                 Gather up your                thoughts and move...
         to places phoenix                        found lasting together
         more promises             crafted               in pearls beyond
          quieter leaning            toward            love that never said
              it could hold            you,          even as darker folds
                 of wisdom's         glory          unwind in fire-lit       
                     futures        reached     only behind the ball  
                          of pastey rock we call the moon. 
                           Suffer not for suffering alone, 
                                  but let mystery 
                                  be guiding ways 
                                  to abstract joy 
                                   and glitters 
                               of words reformed to
                           ferment the kingdom coming...
