A #poem I wrote about God (and Iceland) was recently published in @wildroofjournal.bsky.social! Here is the full poem. I share more about my process for writing it, including screenshots of my early drafts from my Notes app, in this Substack post: hannaheve.substack.com/p/god-at-geysir #poetry

A poem by Hannah Levy titled "God at Geysir"

Not as singular
or eternal
but as embodied,
as in my body.
God as grasping,
as holding. God
as opening, swollen
and saturated. God
as pulse, as bloodcurrent
and throatsong. God
as glacial. God as every
ending, a red moon rising.
God as lover, whole
hand reaching, push-
pulling inside out.
A death I always
prayed for. God
as heat, me a vessel.
Hoofbeat and breath.
At Geysir, in Iceland,
God paints blue
patience. Gathers
strangeness in the mouth.
This whole thing
is about to explode
and God is watching.
At astronomical dark
God is a drunk
and lustful sky—
here God offers
me the future
with open palms.
And if I say God
is two bodies, will God
still enter me?
At nightfall, I watch
a sheep with eyes
down low. He tells
me to live
in the light.

"The poet sees for a certainty how one not a great artist may be just as sacred and perfect as the greatest artist. . . . The power to destroy or remould is freely used by him but never the power of attack. . . . The presence of the greatest poet conquers." —Walt Whitman, Intro to Leaves of Grass
