 of His

Word

impression

engraved on white fire.
Inspiration,
in-drawn breath,
exhalation,
exclamation,
explanation.

--

40 years
wilderness wandering;
glory heard all about;
flame-led by
fire pillar:

Sinai's Voice

--

Lost in wild Paran.

GEBOREI


Perform His Bidding,
Hearken to the Voice
of His Word.

Does not man speak from glory?
Saying words --
not words not said only
saying(s) impressed on air
meaning mouthed direct;

falling dumb,
failing before word is said
chariot
flat-wheeled, sprung and
sparks saying only what's
rightly heard.

Glory to glory
through glory;
manifest transference --
conduit
carrying back a
radiance projection.

Words of power
death words
power words
ahron ha-elohim.

For thereon, upon two keruvim,
sits Adonai seviot .

Woe to messenger!

Thirty-thousand foot soldiers slain by Pelishtim, but even more so, [whispered] Ark captured. Panic, precipitate childbirth, delivery; glory gone -- galah kavod!

Therefore, name him I-Kavod: "inglorious".

But they could not hold it. Dagon reduced to trunk; men of Ashdod, swollen men of Gat, inwardly struck with swelling Eqronim, in deadly panic made images of their swellings (some say hemorrhoids); images of mice that ravaged land; made golden devices for a guilt offering. Then, on cow-drawn cart, returned the Ark and five gold swellings, cast impressions, one each for Ashdod, Aza, Ashqelon, Gat and Ekron. One for each, as guilt offering; and another fifty thousand and seventy men of Bet-shemesh died before the Ark reached the sanctified hands of Elazar son of Avinadav.

And all twenty years the Ark was gone -- sighing, sighing.

And God said, "Swellings!"
And He said, "Mice!"
And He said, "Internal Swellings!"
And He said,
"Death to Dagon,
God of Ashdod!"

And these words
from the mouth of His glory:
impressions;
no ear necessary;
each body bearing realtime embossment.

No mystic trance,
no word spoken;
act alone;
only
direct
impressed
in hostage flesh.

The Lord inflicts
revenge.

No "stealing",
no bloody war's booty --
misappropriation --
earns retribution:
consequence of misplaced arrogance.

No need to listen;
only hear;
can only feel,
correctly attribute
cause

only interpret.

Of course,
mighty ones do His bidding:

Soft glow.

Mouth of glory:
