I know you have a complex relationship with traditional religion,
I enjoyed the last line - it is varied and subtle -
Short form can be difficult to write and understand -
I had to read it a few times
great write to savor -
"in granite and faith" These 2 things seem so unrelated, but you make them intertwine in this line like they do. Very unique.
"transcending"
I love this word--it has a mystical quality about it and gives your entire poem a mystical flow.
Gorgeous, peaceful visuals here... -
Intriguing, brings forth many thoughts, in many differing aspects, at once.
Concealment of stoned blessings-
Rivalry for hearts of all mankind-
Endowing thoughts other than baser instincts-

A rather ignoble take on material philosophy, given you are insinuating the merits of metaphysical claims.
-
Very philosophical dear friend and so very true. Love, C

Just beautiful and a philosophy in itself!
A very deep piece and so thought provoking.
All the very best with this

Hello,
Just like you I am still learning. I'm not really sure what granite means
Other then that I found the ending to be very unique.
Well done in 10 Words.
