say God is Truth

and we must love

and forgive ourselves

being varied jagged pieces


but if I tell the truth

about those pieces

and the fractured Oneness

we all claim for ourselves


and am just another

shard of some infinitely broken thing

then why bother the saying

of what vague ambiguous truth


and of what holy sutures

hold this vast head together?
