Cathedral<\/strong><\/p>\n

This Sunday
the ocean is my cathedral.
The wind, clearly visible
breaking in random pattern
across the waves
is all I need of The Holy One.
The Word is being written
in the open sky.
I need no homilies
in pompous voice,
nor metaphors drawn
parasitic
from the God
in which I sail.<\/p>\n
