the title drew me in, but i got a bit 'lost' trying to follow the poem to its ending.
mercy seat sounds familiar. hmm? could it be related to this? ? :
According to the Hebrew Bible, the mercy seat (Hebrew: הַכַּפֹּֽרֶת ha-kappōreṯ) was the gold lid with two cherubim beaten out of the ends of it to cover and create the space into which God would appear.... This was connected with the rituals of the Day of Atonement; where God did appear.
