Good Friday-02.04.21

Spring

Renewal

amidst

Jim Crow coming on strong

the incessant backbeat of mass shootings

ström troopers crucify

people of colour

impotent men with

big stomachs

and no guts

brandish weapons

doves released at the Vatican

like 

JOY

Camus prophesied

Plague

Poe’s premonition

Red Masque

Cooking flowers

redemption

pink spiders-famished

Mermaids-swimming free

Angels-rebels 

Poetry

Art

spoke with God,

pure love

pure beauty

she whispered 

it wasn’t her fault

spoke with the devil

mirror image of me

roars 

suck it up Mary

my dog 

chases a ball

an attack on US capitol

Good Friday commemorates the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ

on  Good Friday
