by Pavel Chichikov
Our Lord was in the chapel cleaning
Swung His mop in curving lines
As once He wrote archaic dust
So now He soaps a long design
God inside the tabernacle
Descends to clean the chapel floor
The Lord a menial refugee –
No one sees the door ajar
“How beautiful this world and that
One of lapis, one of jade
And there between a gallery
Of curving spacetime I have made”
