Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
To get through this thing called life
Electric word, life
It means forever and that’s a mighty long time.
―Prince

The world is charged with the grandeur of God.
It will flame out, like shining from shook foil…
―Gerard Manley Hopkins

I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you’re mine, I walk the line.
