Holy Saturday

Hover, grey sky, cover the light.
Still your quaking, earth, the fight is already lost.
Sit, brother, stay inside, for danger lurks beyond.
Come away, sister, close the window. There is nothing to see.
Justice fell.
Boundaries stood tall.
Evil won.
Beauty vanished.
No rescue. No victory.
Wander now, world, and weep for
Jesus of Nazareth is dead.

-Hillary B. Kimsey
