Biblical Desire

This is the result of blotting out words in a book dedicated to biblical quotes. Essentially, I ravaged the pages and voila. A poem.

My soul longeth, yea,
for the courts of
heart and flesh,
living,
longing,
hungry soul
longing.

Behold,
thy salvation,
hands: my soul,
a thirsty land.

Thou open hand--
the desire of living knowledge,
thy understanding--
seekest her, searchest for her
hid treasures.

Then, understand:
the knowledge of the heart,
a tree of life.

Desire is sweet,
the soul is the sight of the eyes,
the wandering desire.

Desire of our soul,
remembrance of my soul,
in the night,
your spirit.
