Love is the astrolabe of mysteries

Love is the astrolabe of mysteries
revolving here and there. Love is the guide
that leads through darkness, love is the one light
that orients me. Love is how I know

where east and west are, love is how I measure
movement in the world. There is no art
without love, there is no resplendent god
nor any meaning without love. I can't see

the limits of bodies without the light
that is love, I have no sure sense of self
without love joining me. There is no power

without a maddening love, I navigate
the world with its aid, I traverse the seas
and read the sky to know love's mysteries.
