- Forged in fire, bent and annealed
- broken assunder, reforged and healed.
- Heated and beaten, beaten and healed.
- This is a good sword, created and forged.
- The fire tests us, sometimes bests us,
- as we struggle just to live,
- The ineffable, Lord of the Firmament
- Tests our metal,
- Tests our willingness to forgive.
- The Lord of Creation;
- A word spreading over the ocean
- born, reborn, winds and eternal waves
- Is defined, redefined, we participate in creation
- like a drop of water in the ocean
- waves spreading from first contact.
- We define the ineffable, we create our image;
- In our hubris or blasphemy, we imagine what the divine is all about
- and our delusions are crushed
- and burned in fire.
- And we can pray that waves will spread from each point of light,
- that we can heal the world, and make it right.
- For We either teach and learn,
- Or we taste the fire, and are beaten and healed.
- Or are broken and discarded.
