Monastic Valentine

I know a little
about the inside
he knows a little
about the outside
we are both half-
blind or like the builder
and the one who hands
him the bricks
or like lovers who
recognize the inspiration
of opposition but what
does Mt. Athos want
to look in to the Christ
of the past or outside
to the Christ of the future
only the inside
could ask such a question
only the outside
could answer
