All the paths of the Lord are kindness and constancy
toward those who keep his covenant and his decrees
(Responsorial Psalm)

She had heard
a
voice of fire

and listened

cry
Abba Father

it said and

  “comfort
my people
comfort them”

And so she
lived
until the

forge could
no
longer hold

the fire
—that
Fire—

that no
cosmos could
contain

only trace

or mirror
