Holy Artifacts


She could start a religion
With her

Fervor,

Knowing what she likes
And painting

It

In her likeness,
Which
Is

That

Of bright lights -
Brightening

Every -

Thing,

In beauty – Personified
Beautified,

A function
Of
Abundance,

An unction
Of
Jubilance,

The radiance
Of
Her face

Exact,

As she anoints
The new

Holy

Artifacts.

For the Blu One.

... There is this term for religions based around artifacts...

I could not find it.

I encountered it in the book "American Cosmic" by Diana Pasulka.

Twas a very interesting read.

I am in the process of moving books.

I brought a whole bunch last night.

Makes me very happy.
