+ 5TH POEMS: As By A Time Device, Starward, An Orthodox Christian, Tells Starwatcher, Summer Of 1976 [Repost]

To the summer of nineteen seventy-six, the season of Starwatcher---

the summery screen name that freed you from being a botcher

of your existence; then to the final form (as preferred)

the summary screen name, Starward.

Beyond the tyranny of calendar and clock,

and the disapproval that seeks to intrude or block,

you seek, foremost, an ancient spirituality:

the Faith of the Orthodox Church, real Christianity---

the Faith of the Orthodox Catholic Church, our Christianity,

the Orthodox Church that Jesus founded personally.

Bear witness to it in your final Poetry.


Starward, an Orthodox Christian
