law // gospel

I'm taking a class
to learn how to remodel
a house that was long ago
burned to the ground.

I'm scouring a dish
that will never be clean
till it's shattered in pieces
beyond all repair.

I'm dressing my best
for a made-up audition
to cast for a part
I was given at birth.

//

Stand on the ashes
Don't pick up the pieces
Play.
