A Prototype of Glory
written by: Josh Pampam

look at the obsidian
in the rare touch of light,
the mid-month moon
in the depth of the night;
look at the garden
in her summery dress,
and sniff the scent of grapes
in a winepress.
before you look at her —
a goddess in human form,
whom with her person
moves ‘midst storm.
her smiles
that slight sorrow from miles,
her poise
that freezes men’s heart of choice,
and the well-wreathed words
that boom out of her mouth —
Makes me call her,
“A Prototype Of Glory.”
