Today's word is "argot" ... AHR-goh, -guht ... The special vocabulary and idiom of a particular profession or social group: sociologists' argot. (Dictionary.com)
Sing
Cathedral walls reach with
Stained glass hands for God.
To hear him speak, to feel his
Touch, the supplicants bow down.
Their argot of prayer and hymnody
Rings through the sacred space.
This music rises as an offering,
Climbing, finding it's way out into
The world where it will fill the air
With the breath of God.
