Church of the Rez

It was kind of dead here

in that last gasp of darkness before dawn is made apparent

but came a man likened to a church mouse

to unlock the door, to walk across the floor

and flip the switches that woke up the building

once he attired the pile of bricks with appropriate light

he drew upon his vestments

thickly white and starched to hide his tail

and stood at the head of the staircase

to watch the reawakening.

 

And that’s how we found him

at the top of a steep staircase

urging us on to the glory of a world steeped in faith

below we conspire

to burn the incense and light the candles this time in a way better then perfect

using smoke and light to breathe fire into the belly

staining the bricks brown with the soot of our sins

before we leave them in the basement

with our other inconvenient prejudices.

 

But when we crack open the recycled manuals

there are stories to be sung into life

at this church of resurrection.
