Fury's Orchid
This is where
the darkest breath
threads above the cross
swollen water ablaze with moss
and cold unholy shapes evoke
the faith entangled doom
rivet webs of finest wire, loom
crack and brutal earth
under pain and fever sheen
keep in god’s pale hand
like a bird that quivers
before the violent dawn
its flight
the birth of new light
upon earth’s meridian
sacred as a wraith
in silent sorrow swoon
heart hound held heavy
under fury’s orchid
bloom
