And Joy Befell Me


And Joy Befell Me

Some confusion as we queued at the altar -
suddenly ushered forward by the pretty verger
as the priest approached, to the middle of the rail -
sweet symmetry - and as I knelt - tout de suite,
the host arrived, melted on my tongue, the flesh, the light
her swinging pony tail, all the people, all as one.
