B is for Cathedral

[blogging brings a kind of discipline. not totally sure what to say today. maybe i rest. still, i need to post. so enjoy a piece i wrote some time back. then rest. pax]

What.
What has befallen the cathedral?
What midnight witch has set a curse upon this house… and given birth to turbulence?

They were gods, you know.
Young gods.
And they blessed us with their love.

Her power lay in his words
And his…
Lay in the scent of her hair.

And we who were privileged to draw near to their space,
Their place
Knew what love was.

Stained between sheets of glass.
Etched in marble.
Her finger nails carved out his sighs and we echoed it like a prayer.

But now, ill mannered birds circle the sanctuary
And that which is vile lives there.
The rain exposes our tears.

Come!
Bring the oils.
Retrieve the texts.
Maybe we can save this place, make it a safe place.
With a kiss…
And a prayer…
And maybe the “gods” would return there.

Broken Cathedral…

My boys are artists, artistes, atheists, and agirl (who is in fact one of the boys so hence the addition to the category) fathers, brothers and high school musicals (Jed and Umar will get that one – lol). We share ideas, music, random nothingness and Brent Worthington . We approve, reprove and listen to each other. I think the girl that I end up with must in fact be like the boys I love. Good looks aside… please… have some substance. One of my boys is appalled that I watched Gossip Girl (if you’re going to bash it… know what it is first) and has for this [and other minor reasons] jokingly labeled me a homosexual. But he who looks like Miley Cyrus with rainbow bandanas should not talk [chuckles]. I love my
