Caritas

Rachael Boast

These stones speak a level language

murmured word by word,

a speech pocked and porous¹（能渗透的） with loss,

and the slow hungers of weathering.

And there, in the broken choir², children

are all raised voice, loving the play of outline

and absence where the dissembled god

has shared his shape and homed us.

At the end of the nave³（中殿）, the east front stands

both altered and unchanged,

its arch like a glottal stop.

And what comes across, half-said

into all that space, is that it's enough

to love the air we move through.
