PEDESTAL

Place me a bronze nymph
upon that stand in you hand,
take me and mold me
into that perfect receptacle.

oh love me and hold me
deep in the recesses of thy heart,
a beautiful formless creature
totally perfect in thy sight.

never let me fall from that pedestal
which by thy love you have placed me upon.

for to do that my handsome seyor
would cause me to stumble and fall.
