Take a Vow

The vaulted ceiling takes its vow
the vane and shaft take their vow
the pulp and pulpit take their vow
the puppets in their poppet show
their pony show their horse and
puppy show their book and box
take the vow.

The mascara on its cheek takes a vow
the musket in its memories takes a vow
a long narrow shotgun apartment takes
a part a vow.
