I piece together the day so far As I stare up at the moon Strikingly reminiscent of the stained glass The bones of Christ Translucent upon the cross Seeing through But not beyond Like the mist on these mountains Clouded thoughts in my mind Forever lost in a half formed memory That masquerades as a premonition
