A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto

secret

 

ravens with red wings

pastor's hands washed with holy water

the sparrow cries

Sent a shudder down my spine J. Those who were trusted abusing that trust and I feel sure it still continues. A darkness that is difficult to contemplate and so many victims.

Washing the poor birds for the slaughter later. Oh, how they abuse the faith and trust people put in them.
Will not be a bird of prey; will be an obedient servant to God alone.
Excellent, sir Jacob.

You are welcome sir Jacob.
I'm sure a dove is crying as well. There have been too many secrets. It's tainted the wafers.
