Pellucid Jury

...Here a man stands accused--the pellucid jury of

his peers come to themselves in their life's arms

through him.

He wails upright...a shadow continent wedging

The Flood.

Timekeeping horseflies besmirch his chest cavity

with due kisses...par for par movements consume

time till the singular advocacy of he withstood.

The imperturbable essence captured itself, as so

at the height of its powers there's interplay.

Ease culled from tribulation...countenance slackened

by degrees...overwhelmed by awareness.

Kingdom come Kingdom--shoring space of grace

that is freedom.

As if Everything centering of itself, fawning over itself...

polar opposites in conjugal bliss.

Here  a man stands accused...of being--fit for steely

juxtaposition...the murderous implement of will, or

salvation.

Envision him post-Flood, waist-deep, the living Face

of the Deep...look upon him!

Timekeeping horseflies besmirching his chest cavity

with due kisses...par for par movements consuming

time till the singular advocacy of thee...look upon

him!

An encounter of pitless ramification: fear or love...be 

it last man upon the earth.

Look upon him--O jury of his peers boasting billions...

pellucid unto one another...look...the Hour is radiant.

Won't thee come to thine life's arms through him?

For he is everyman. 

Konstantinos Mark

nice write

Beautiful diction and poem but my only concern in that maybe some people won't understand all that you're saying because of your language.

I'm not saying you should change it but I just thought I'd raise that point.

It's still a beautiful piece and just a pleasure to read. Very nicely done!
