"Falling Bark"

“Falling Bark”

cji

10/3/19

Nero’s martyrs

stripped naked

sent to the arena

facing the beasts

ashamed not

testifying to Father

of their love

while same with trees

falling bark exposing

embarrassing not

nature’s law to live

while how are we

found when stripped

as the martyr or tree

or guilty in the world?
