This Is No Serpent

___________________________________________________________________________________

And That Is No Serpent's Eye

Holy Trompe l'oeil
my oh my!

How sacred the bricks
how sacred the line
undersiding the stairwell
of St. John the Divine

Every time I pray
the answer is nay...

A simple polysyllabic word–
there is none that I know
that rhymes with
GAUSTOVINO

Across the island of Manhattan
there is hardly a mile
that has not been blessed
by Gaustovino tile
