Cold

“My friend’s cold made-up face, granite among its flowers,
Her undressed, operated-on, dressed body
Were my face and body.”

When the phantoms are gone and the shaken realist
First sees reality. The mortal no
Has its emptiness and tragic expirations.”

Your souls for flight, your bodies for the earth;
Prepare your arms for glorious victory;
Prepare your eyes to meet a holy God!
Prepare, prepare!”
