weeds and cacti snare my feet,
keeping me from home.

Virgin’s Cult

Virgin’s cult
meets within these walls
to worship

Where shadows lengthen,
faith and doubt keep company,
pilgrims weep with joy.

In winter dream walks,
I imagine wildflowers
springing from the dust.

high atop the temple fence,
where his old dream walks.
