Psalm Sonnet 26: I Speak in Praise

From the first word of the morning
There is an epicentre, an
Orientation—a place that
Calls and directs my attention.

I live from out of an altar,
A place of sacrifice—out from
A word that reveals and conceals.
Neither thought nor experience—

I speak in praise: from out of a
Glory, wondrous to begin with.
