166.27 Muse on the pop art of Sister Corita
Muse on the pop art of Sister Corita

Sainted the signs
that signal our distress,
our sins, dear Sister.
Stigmata of release:
white on blues.

Knight-gold on blue,
a signature of times that rush
that do not stop for us
then fade into their glorified pasts. This

Palm of the present:
burden of our culture
or a dash of hope we can somehow
divine our future.

Vibrations flash:
Blue/white
blue/gold
white/blue
white/red
blue/white
red/white
gold/red
like cars in a train,

A then, is for Astrology,
its white star-gems blue backed,
below: do they see us roaring
past-past-past,
hear cold clacks of rails in rain.

Heart of our beating, white now red
that signal the source of our sins, dear Sister,
our hope and redemption,

O My God, our pain.
