lyrics

Come, Fluttering Dove!
that wombed Christ
and wooed the Virgin.
Come, Spirit of Love
in Cupid's cult prefigured,
now in tongues of flame delivered
from our limited images,
singing how "the wonderful thing about Tiggers is
I'm the Only One."

Come, Three in One!
for now it's time for silly songs
concerning Adam Livingston
who tilled and kept the soil of
what was yet to be West Virginia
where my family went to ski
about two centuries
after these events.
We drove past houses
marked with a crescent moon.

Come, Crescent Moon!
illuminate my manuscript
cause I've got a lot of work to do.
Cradle me crescent as you cradled the kid
in Dreamworks Animation's logo,
he cast his line in the night
I'm casting mine for insight,
would you be
my Seat of Wisdom too?

Come, Spirit of Truth!
You've become our peer
so please peer-review
the paper I submit to you.
The sources seem scant
seem sometimes crude
and the principle artefacts in fact
are lost to time, and I find
things like this scandalize
minds inclined to dull
the precious stones sewn
in robes worn
by Catholic priests.

Come, Catholic Priest!
Come cassocked, come covered in controversy,
adverse to verses such as these,
that obfuscate thy ordinary office
of forgiving, and teaching, and blessing, and preaching
Christ crucified.
Fly from West Virginia
on a moonbeam,
by thy celibacy,
by the Fluttering Dove,
by the Spirit of Love,
I think I have enough to start.
