Matrix Poetry
When writing this poetry, I wanted to play with the idea that the character of Eleanor is viewed as a stand-in figure for God by Marie. So that the actions that Marie takes within the narrative are considered justifiable actions in the name of reaching "God's" graces. Something to keep in mind is that when the poems refer to God as "them" it's about Eleanor, and when it refers to "The Lord" or "Him" it is about the Christian God, as Matrix is a story about Marie de France.
