Clothed, I, in robes,
Sanctified by charcoal deities;
Widowed of this world,
And as yet unborn;
Mourn the galloping pulse,
Of the passing night divine.
β€˜Learning to weep, learning to keep vigil, learning to wait for the dawn. Perhaps this is what it means to be human.β€˜
- Henri Nouwen

β€˜The robe of flesh wears thin.’
- John Buchan
