sunlight in the
spaces between houses
map of loss
geography of both
memory and sorrow and
then what?
find the man with the
crosses carved into his palms
find the one with the head of
a crow,
with the mind of a jackal
the junkie hymns are
what matter here,
and the prayers
of murdered dreamers
gold and myrrh and that
all gifts are weapons
that all lovers
believe in resurrection
the heart betrays the body
yes
but then the
body betrays the soul
ecstasy precedes despair
the desert spreads without
mercy in every direction
