The Grand Kindness

in colors of The Grand Kindness
wine gum packets
in a ciborium

in colors of The Grand Kindness
flesh falling off
The Lamb of God

how come the sky is so bright
if it's all cloudy outside
is there really no telling
when our sadness might dawn

rainbows erupt from the pit
of flesh, of love and of spit
a full English in Thailand
two clasping hands and I'm gone

in colors red, green and purple
oil pastels in The Jordan
a mouth full of salmon
two clasping hands and I'm gone
