Behind The Alter
upon this alter the
cross is laid.
which utters hope.
the poor is
embraced
to fertility.
behind the alter are
vermin to Lazarus
encircled exorbitant
levies.
many are brutalized
to
the alter.
forced to disgusting
communion.
before the alter are
worms
like a flowing
river-
as of Jordan baptizing.
the alter understands-
but
gold except-
no other tongue.
behind the alter are
naked souls
dancing before
swines.
the alter no longer speak
purification-but
besotted to gold.
I dare not to the
alter of mundane
Not for me!
for humanity and for
divinity
