Analysis of Rebirth & Reclamation
You don’t have to abandon previous beliefs
to embrace what presents to you now
As windows long open whose portals of light
wrap around each new vision—enshroud
Those messages ancient and all messages new
interlock like the fingers of God
The truth by dimension delivering you whole
—new lightning reclaiming the rod
(Villanova University: January, 2021)
