from the gate of the temple
where people thronged to offer prayers

P rayer is my posture —

R emembering you, you and you in prayer…

Coaxing gentle promises from cold maidens
candlelight vigils by the goose feather altar
Ordered 10 Hail Marys, and 5 Our fathers
and she bled for both of their sins...
