Summary
Post 4.16, Castiel suffers a crisis of conscience. Anna knows a lot about how that feels.
Author's Note:
The title is taken from this sonnet by GM Hopkins. Hopkins was a Jesuit priest whose earlier poems are exquisite, joyous little explosions of love and Faith, seeing God all around him, expressed in the light on a kingfisher's wing and the movement of a hawk in flight. But as a priest, he was sent to work in some truly dark and desperate places, and gradually lost - if not his faith that there was a God, at least his sense of connection with God. The terrible sonnets of his later life are about this desperate, urgent reaching out to a God who no longer responds. Castiel's present situation puts me in mind of Hopkins at this point in his life - thus the title.
