Heady Material

Heady material, this crush of yours;
For, only you knew how to vault
It in the night, as you lay awake
And save it from the cunning somersault
That heralds its burglary.
And only you knew how to worship
Its anniversary, if anniversaries
Were ever a labor of days; jip
This modular, oracular box
Of its recited trifecta: month day year
Combination--and lose this fact,
If threes were ever potent saboteurs to the ear.
Only you do not let this crushname do unto
The enshrined thing itself, the plunder
Endlessly vulnerable
Beneath hands' tapping gunnery, thunder
Upon the vault. And only you loom sentry--
That the lacquered faces fail to burn
Notwithstanding a moment's lapse of adoration:
You still find some owner--and return.
