In my gnarled|wooden hands
I cup a sacrament none too sacred
& from the eucharist flowed amber death
It dissolved stones|leaden
Stones that I once held|loved
My wings were never clipped, my dear
In a rush of violence torn|asunder
Hush, child, whisper no more
The nyte is hallowed for thee

I cannot believe there are no replies on this piece..... it's wonderful - the imagery of the moment is so complete, like you've captured a memory and studied it..... brilliant. Thank you.
