None but these:
the five of them
walking past the church
as if
it held no light within
for them.
Heads bowed
in the face of wind
blowing much too mightily
freed
of all emotion's greed
enticing them to whim
of need
as they counted fervantly
beads and Mary's lack of seed
as if it was her saving grace

and perhaps it was.

ty, my own lil trinity.

I should explain--that wink and nod wasn't amusement nor jest at anyone's religious beliefs--I had simply had so much wine I didn't remember writing this. As I recited it on the phone to a pip-friend, I was told it was perfect iambic pentameter too.

*shrugging helplessly*

It's not written on the page that way, though. Anyhow, I told my friend I had no idea what I meant when I wrote it--so consider this a "stream of unconscious" offering.

No offense intended.

*peace*
