i. (amazing grace, how sweet)
you rode in
on a seraphim, wrath
with the white horse
champing.
o, bit
more than
could chew.
i knew you were coming,
was told by the
very one that brought you
here.

to my own
gate.
ii. (the sound that saved a wretch)

but i cannot
be blinded,
cannot be quiet,
cannot be taken.

tongue here,
grace only grows.

ivying up from eden

like the heel
on the head
of the snake.
holy, holy,
the angel
falls,
like me.
iii. (i once was)
lost and
hunted,
slow as sin
blooms in
the enraged,
you will be brought
low.
the other horses
we will break,
like the sea
