O God, make me poor enough to love yurd diamond in the rough, or in my failure let me see, my greed raised to mistery.
Do you hate the one who must turn your world all to dust? Do you hate the ones who ask if Creation wears a mask
God beyond the God I name, if mask and fire are the same, repair the seam my love leaps through , uncreated fire to pursue.
Network of cretated fire, maim my love and my desire. Make me poor so I may be, servant in the world I see
And clenching your fist for the ones like us who are oppressed by the figures of beauty, you fixed yourself, you said, "Well never mind, we are ugly but we have the music."
I walk through the old yellow sunlight to get to my kitchen table the poem about me lying there with the books in which I am listed among the dead and future Dylans
