Vulnerability visible, thin fragility decorating,
Refined carpentry creation,
A table next to the Altar,
Bold in lacking, strength in weakness,
Silent in demand, quietly standing,
Wooden perch of pronouncement,
A sublime displaying of burning incense,
Wafting upward and Eucharist bells,
Four legs acting pillars during Mass,
Symbolically, the Gospels supporting,
Curving crafted lines of subtle intent,
Minimal structure amidst the sanctuary,
Precious protection in need of restraint,
A drop of water and wine mixing,
Everything susceptible, the salvation of man.
