What is the light
          inside the opening
of every letter: white
          behind the angles
is a language bright
          because a curvature
of space inside
          a line is visible
is script a sign
          of what it does
or does not occupy
          scripture the covenant
of eye and eye
          with word or what
the word defines
          which is source
and which is shrine
          the light of body
or the light behind?
