Long Lost

Preview astound
Having been sifted
Elevated learning
Caught mid-fall.

Breath in nostrils
Heart not pumping
Walled in
Catechism.

Youth confused
Unelected
Sit amidst
Classroom child.

Falsely baptized
Certain death
Love’s failed form
Lust refrained.

Mardi Gras Shrove
Soul is ash
Faith as scarlet
Depth is empty.

Eyes sewn shut
Severed tongue
Listen
Robe lightly touched.
