Slept On A Book

As I witnessed afterglow

Underpinning the sky drama

The Psalms, one Quran 

shone on tears of doubt

Overdue carcasses in crashing time

the cascade of shade

and whimsy

on King David's throne

Christology's wreath

encircling Makkah 

pirouette on mercy

leaking heaven -

"traditional ecstasy".
