The Art of War

Chris as Sol Invictus. Mosaic of the Vatican grottoes under St. Peter's Basilica, Rome, on the ceiling of the tomb of the Julii.

Hodegetria learning the First Person

For convenience, I am
Observing the Law
That is, the pre-commandment
            Hear, O Israel
            You Shall Love
Who
I am
What
I am
The First Person
not my native speech
but if
the Name
then
let me wear the I
as a cloak
garment covered with eyes
for the sake of the poem
I see
with my cloak
the telling the riding
the way can only be
seen as it is written
my hooves the text
so here I am
send me
