This popped unprompted out of yesterday's reflections on faith…
THE GOD-SHAPED HOLE
It’s death
that stencils
the God-shaped hole
into our
tinplate lives.
Because of
childhood’s end;
because of
the sleep
of reason;
because of
the darkness,
that blows like
black sand,
cauterising flesh
back to bone
and before
bone; because
of these things,
and because
our name is
One, we choose
to nominate
the raw, untitled
light that streams
through the
God-shaped hole.
Acknowledgement is due to the BBC TV series Afterlife for the title.
