"so that the genuineness of your faith,
more precious than gold
that is perishable even though tested by fire..."
1 Peter 1:7
 
 
Arches and domes etched 

in magnitude. Will the mouths speak 

what the hearts are full of? or like 

the minds—confide in silence? 

Pearls and chandeliers connive 

to bare those souls in agony. And while 

those hands that lift before sunrise and 

at sundown, incessantly—beseech the heavens, 

yearning for eternal bliss. Hail, those old candles 

with disheartening flames enduring cries 

and sighs—in between. 
 
As the cup of chastisement awaits the cruel and 

the ungodly, gusty winds became succor 

of what is unclear...whereby smiles are 

but dainty camouflage in the light 

of the dust.
