The Jonah Stone

An experiment between good vs. evil,
the domain of saints and our sacred lives.
mortgages...
bank fees...
water bills...
electricity....
but through it all?
I've commenced.
Judge me by name only.
I will see this now,
dungeons and dragons,
snakes and ladders.
A charged summoning,
rigor...
the volume rising.
Rubble, sifting through the vigor.

I'm in that place,
right under.

No.

None.

The earth's moon travels in a day,
our axis rotates within 24 hours.

And one day...

the light dawns upon us!

When I become talented,
that one day...
a wax statue is made in my honor.

That I've held onto gods crucifix,
around my bare neck...
the soul crowned.

This healthy renewal I found?

Promise me,
you'll walk with me...
into the light.

That you'll be there waiting,
and we'll all know where to meet again.

Where all of us,
mother / father / sister / brother
... we call each other's name.

This is about my dying aunt, I pray for her... and this dedicated to her. Be with us always, you'll never walk alone. Go to the light, and know we will meet you there... this I pray. Amen. Sweet aunt. I love you... I wish I could die with you. I wish I would touch your sweet face, hold your hand. Hug you. Love you. I will miss you. I want to dry your tears away.
