Batter my heart, three person'd God (Holy Sonnet XIV)

It's been a long time, John Donne, since I have read you.

Ardent yet remote

Ardent yet remote,
The early months
Like the base of a wedge
Ascending;

There is immense pressure upon us.


Can this be tested,
And how firstly

Overlapping the lights
Becoming more like light.
