House of Life

Enamtila ejects the next to face the sages’ fetch quest

Tests mettle the trials of life, love’s unslaked thirsts unbuilt nests

Nothing left to take to breast, my hard-impressed flesh irons with age

Everything therewith bored; some hear angel song but I hear footfall on boards

Thrills his querents with paths through, judges debating seasons, all-farmer

Formerly man, he carries still hod and plough, bows no more is bowed to

Sees boughs apple-laden which life hides, each sephirah fires of godhead 

Venture-laden, venture out laden with gifts and arts; deliver life to the dead
