Stained glass Stained glass wings, vulnerably
fragile wings high above churchs window
small scapulae overlooking altar, priests
wild hair choir boys in awe
clouded mind scared citizens
Cautiously freed cicada wings
hidden for too long
spit upon, never seen
Cicada, colourless and trampled
unfolds itself, preparing a
first, frightening jump, flying
away with fragile glass wings
Stained person colourful person
