Death of a Godman

I have agreed to cede 
an unwritten moon
in a killing frenzy,
for a chequered spirituality.

Now visitation will start 
ravishing the light at dawn.
The grievers will assemble
for a final scoop of dust.

Forgive my star,
for a failed touchdown.
A child stands before glitterati
born again to suffer the other sky.

Nothing comes out of nothing.
The circle was complete.
