Odd that photos of us look so little like us.
Videos, verbal descriptions, wood carvings, paintings
are all amusing, the figures so far from the facts.
Surely that is how it is with you, Lord,
that what is said of you, even these words,
go comically wide, fly away screwball and careening,
bouncy bouncy bouncy,
while you, gloriously free,
escape every adjective and noun,
even these.
