sempiternal and empyrean

Her nature elevates us all
on rising columns pedestal
in offering to lightning strikes
We gladly take the sacrifice

She comes from realms above beyond
and lingers here to point the way
we pile fragrant, oiled woods
and queue devoutly, day by day

awaiting our ecstatic turn
to join in an unchanging blaze
that burns our sacred faults to ash
as she stands back, intrigued, amazed
