The Excesses Of God

Is it not by his high superfluousness we

Our God?

For to be equal a

Is natural, animal, mineral: but to

Rainbows over the

And beauty above the moon, and secret

On the domes of deep sea-shells,

And make the necessary embrace of

Beautiful also as fire,

Not even the weeds to multiply without

Nor the birds without music:

There is the great humaneness at the heart of things,

The extravagant kindness, the

Humanity can understand, and would flow

If power and desire were perch-mates.

Anonymous submission.
