The Truth of None But Thee


by Brian Jones



Most admirable to say that there
is none for me but thee.
Indeed, ‘tis true and fair
enough to foster mighty deeds!

"None but thee" speaks volumes.
One could write it down small
and set it into columns,
then find these books in need of a wall.

What it tells of thee
is a simple matter to say whole:
that in every dram of thy being
there is nothing at all low.

Yet, in truth, to say there is none but thee
means only that you are All; until you leave.
