Cry, Night

Cry, Night!
You damned souls forever unmoving in your
     un-breath-ed stasis
Mind, will, imagination and love inward-turned
     Frozen now in your eternal genuflection before
     the all-devouring I.
No Evenstar can illumine here

Cry, Dawn!
You happy saints forever poured out in your
     Spirit-ed ekstasis
Soul, blood, imagination and love inward turned
     Outward now in your perpetual kenosis before
     the all-indwelling Thou
Dayspring breaks upon this eager morn.
