Wink

take this all away from me 

this piece of me

and these puzzling words 

will perish in 

this feverish 

heat

go ahead 

bury these earthly words

in shallow graves covered 

with clumps of clay 

followed by shovels 

of black earth

searching 

curious

worms

I am fine with it

exchange them all for some

heavenly gibberish

angelic gazes

one 

divine 

word

wink of

god's 

eye
