we  
 the angels 
 are arrows of love 
 so sharp and piercing 
 which god hurls 
 we rise 
 and 
 
bare our 
 eager chests
 hearts leaping
 while some 
 fall 
 
if i 
 were
 a lowly leper 
 would god still
 grasp my hands
 in His my crumpling 
 stubs carress
 
if 
 someone
 held your hand
 last night unto 
 the rising dawn
 it was not mine
 you gripped so 
 tight but His
 
on earth
 as in
 hevn
