Crossroads '23

A Poem by Desert Knave

Back at the crossroads

Pain does not go away

It's the bread of the day

And the call to pray

Back at the crossroads

Peace has been torn apart

Rending all to the heart

And mourning must start

Back at the crossroads

Grief does not go away

And leaves those that stay

With the call to pray

Back at the crossroads

All carry heavy loads
