O Belovèd, My Divine Belovèd

But no . . .

How can I speak to my Divine Belovèd
With this filthy tongue in this filthy mouth?

How can I speak to my Divine Belovèd
In the dirty chambers of this dirty heart?

How can I speak to my Divine Belovèd
In the fogged hemispheres of this fogged brain?

How can I speak to my Divine Belovèd?
I know I cannot—

So I will listen to His sacred hum
That flows through all things

And I will sing.
