And You Shall Know

When you’ve been down
Amongst the lowly
Who dwell along
The Lord’s river,

And when you’ve seen
The tight faces
Wearing blankness
As a taut mask,

And have then gone
Deep underground
Where rough diamonds
Lurk under foot,

And you have then
Stumbled and lurched,
But your balance
Has rescued you,

You’ll then emerge
A metaphor,
Legendary
Tabernacle.
