The Sun | Beneath the Cathedral

Beneath Cathedral


Beneath the Cathedral

*
a cold star sinks
no-one wishes upon it

                              *
in the pocket of her apron
a stone from the buried city

a stone once a sun
ripped from its socket

a stone from temple steps
to serve as steeple

a stone is a seed
is a song, a stone
to remember to forget

                              *
here and here
the ground remembers

the last of this language
knotted red
coils

                              *
          the altar of flowers
those stars of thought

*
