Fabrice B. Poussin




Guiding hand


Perhaps the quill dipped in the dark paste,

on the velum found on a hidden shelf,

while he listens, feels, and knows all things;

a prayer stronger perhaps with the carving effort.


From the alpha a wild circle back to the alpha,

to the Heavens to compose of just four more, 

on the wings never to let go into the blue,

your name will shine like so many stars.


He knows for he is, and he means what he needs;

it is glory pure to give him full credit,

when the hand he guides simply draws the lines,

to honor her and acknowledge his will so strong.


The message is written onto the firmament,

for his will is clear like the face of the mirror;

from the Alpha a wild circle back to the alpha,

to simply will sculpt your name for eternity.
