at temple rock


watery wrinkles moving in the space ahead
so close i could touch them...
where nothing seems to be
something just... is
...
like grace

...and so you must be here with me
standing on an old texas hillcountry road
on a breathless, starry summer night
with rock and cedar as temple and witness
and the low trill of a screech owl for a psalm
