Wood worked
Metal biting

PART II
Wood warped
Big
and bulky
Holding
flowers
Like a coffin
Face scarred
Storied
scratches
Hidden
beauty
Now
an eyesore
Words etched
Like
a prophet
In
his hometown
Crying,
“Do this!”
Days short
Ever
numbered
Weekly
famine
Sinners
starving
Meal served
Once
a quarter
If
you’re lucky
Maybe
Easter
Eat, Drink
‘cause
we have to
Stripped
of meaning
Judgment
coming
