God is a Dyer

​God is a dyer, dipping every
Essence of the cosmos into
Vats of luminous colors.
A work so delicate, as to be forgotten.
 
Am I a woven white cloth turned purple,
Or am I a purple cloth, now
so purely absorbed
That the color and the cloth are one?
 
Once, before time, there was
No cloth, but only an enduring color,
Lovingly waiting
To shine forth its hue.
