Bella Vita

Reflection of a jet plane moves over Manhattan.
In the mottled marble of my lunch break altar.

You can see everything in reflections,
and speculate their end.

Light of Ratio--ineffective sans Fides--
Bouncing beams outline a shape
and hint at the shape to come.
So even the simplest shape can rise...
