Epiphany Eve Valentine

There is in us a deep desire
To find something to adore
A body or a bird or a great cause
To which we can surrender
Always and everywhere
Separately and collectively
We have built an altar in our hearts
To something better than ourselves
To emulate and worship
With our burnt offerings
We seem to sense something there
That might restore us to our
Former glory we vaguely recall
To our place among the stars
