Rhythm

What rhythms He plies in His dance-
All of good and healing cosmic
That we presume in our good trance

What rhythms does She cohere fully
In trance to yield in profuse
That we consume haunted thoroughly

Perhaps His malady is Her melody
Sorry, should never talk ill of Them
It is Theirs, Their shared secret psalmody
