A Christmas Carol: Mother and the Drake-Slaying Christ-Child


A Christmas Carol
- Mother and the Drake-Slaying Christ-Child -


the beauty and genesis
a mother and the Christ-child
if not for the Word of a prophet
the love and sacrifice of a virgin
the strength and holy-rage of a Drake-Slayer
would have been unknown, beforehand
however, the Word of a prophet
was, indeed

the life of ransom-pay
their image the muse of an epoch
as a line upon line upon line upon line

------------------------------------
------------------------------------
------------------------------------
------------------------------------

the gospel-four the story they-four writ
of beauty and genesis
of mother and the Christ-child

-----------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------

as a precept upon precept upon precept upon precept
their gift-art the delight of fellow-man
the artists of centuries bring
the mother and the Christ-child
(the art)
the beauty and genesis
(they delight)
