Two boys
These two really belong next to the Walt Whitman poem that I posted yesterday. They are from the lovely West Window in St Saviour’s. Sad to say, I fear that their story did not end happily.

O Rex
O King of the Gentiles and their desired one, the Cornerstone that makes both one: Come, and deliver humanity, whom you formed out of the dust of the earth. Amen. To make divinity out of desire – this is the very stuff of a faith worth believing in. God’s love is always erotic, always looking for a response,…
