We pray—to Heaven

We pray-to Heaven-
We prate-of Heaven-
Relate-when Neighbors die-
At what o'clock to heaven-they fled-
Who saw them-Wherefore fly?

Is Heaven a Place-a Sky-a Tree?
Location's narrow way is for Ourselves-
Unto the Dead
There's no Geography-

But State-Endowal-Focus-
Where-Omnipresence-fly?
