If Only Valentine

If only spirit exists
and everything else
is some nothing we love
to give names to
and find a place for
in this world the museum
the gods have left us
their living paintings
their vocal sculptures
passed on their old
chemistry sets and
transmuted themselves
into gold and other
base metals to live
in our breathing
the light in our blood
awaiting their
eventual release
in thoughts of peace
