If you could invite me with the religious
devotion that I have found too much or even perverse …. I
will try not
to judge with irreligious power
I will become through like a leaking god in
some unfortunate hour and I will thank you with ripping sincerity.

Yeah. That gets me every time.
Your writing is reminiscent of a face in the clouds full of all kinds of celestial modifications to everything we think is honest with respect to what is actually honest and real about being a human being, something much more familiar than our ideals and a good deal less daunting than our own expectations.
It is like a spiritual or naturally religious version of the kinds of stories engineers might share about the hilarious and enlightening differences between how we think things are supposed to work and how they actually do, how wisdom appears when spelled in the hieroglyphs of venerable saints and sages compared to the rather human terms from which they draw their application and even apotheosis in every practical sense of those terms, those without artifice, with rather an arcane sincerity that trumps all the gilt and gaggle with which we occupy our time in place of getting down to the real business of filling ourselves with ourselves.
