I reconstruct your animal
from the fossil bed,
your thorny thistle crown
led me to your Calvary,
and the treasured substratum
where you've kept well.

I reconstruct your animal
larger than myself,
having carried your bones
to your semi-divinity,
having taken of your body
on principle alone.

ohhhh lovely

Really love your use of words...I believe so much that the SOUND of the words has to make as much sense as the MEANING...maybe this is so obvious to poets, but not always the case...and I do have a twisted taste for alliteration as well...

ah you mingle together religion, science and sex-- and a bit of society together so well in such a short poem. Tall order, filled nicely.
