... when a dark cloud arose in the midst of the Jordan

"As a dark cloud sprang up in the midst of the Jordan ..."

O descend
aseptic olibanum:
Bring us to'
your pilgrimage site /
Free our world
swiftly from me.

O fold your grains
fine piperaceae:
Unexpectedly hatched'
ever-burning /
most holy life of love

--------------------------------------------------------

Gethsemane: A garden at the foot of an olive mountain, where Jesus spent his last night.

At first, this garden strongly reminds me of a local clinic.
Sterile latex gloves, disinfection, metallic tools.
However, no patient-friendly routine sets in here: A generous amount of balsam-cultivated peppercorns is ground and then transformed into iron ash with the help of a service.

Most likely, no beaver meeting took place today. They seemed to be uninvited! Rather, there was an extraordinarily large delivery of salt-dried herbs that drove away any sweetness, thus allowing for effortless storage in the specially welded metal cabinet.

But the longer I let this cloud diffuse on my skin, the more I realized that I was greeting the past future here. Take Me to Church and surely, the perfumer had worn the same lab gloves here. Spice, incense, balm, iron herb ... just much gentler! and indeed more beautiful!

With the profound breaths of the receding time, the origin becomes gentler, yet always more reminiscent. Nevertheless, this pyrogenic energy reveals itself without any reverence.

O fly away
eternal liturgy:
In earthly withdrawal'
relentlessly /
Iron reminiscence
worthy of blessing.

Ah, the Toskovat type. I don't know anything about it.
Bottle: terrible.
Your way of describing it: fabulous.

Beautiful words. The scent... I'm skeptical about that.

Between incense and the future. Doesn't sound very appealing. But maybe I just don't get it.

Sounds intense... but metal usually puts me off.

The best thing here, however, is your poetry. 🙂

Well described. Too bad the beavers were uninvited, but maybe it's for the best ☺️
