For the Rising
For the rising
a crucifix hung
on thin wire
from dirt walls
virgin raw
they waited
pilgrim poor
For the rising
beggar bent
they soaked
the seeded earth
by the words
that would not suffer
erasure
a crucifix hung
on thin wire
from dirt walls
virgin raw
they waited
pilgrim poor
For the rising
beggar bent
they soaked
the seeded earth
by the words
that would not suffer
erasure
