Religion is..

the ice inside an avalanche
the crystal breath of prayers
falling on the stained glass,
stone growing soft in the rain
sunflowers bowed to the moon
the cells of brains locked tight,
the damp flames of candles
flowing up from the dying room,
pencils breaking between teeth
a scream fired into outer space.



John G.Hall(C)2004
