Harvest – Book of Hours

 

vellum fertile fields script
our hours of the day
staved upon the stars
parchment of fallowed seasons

altared memories
ambered remembrance
shattered shards
petrified recollections
gathered stones
clutter the cairn
bound to earth
binding fate

tracts of faith
nettle laden
boundary ditches
hail descends
proxied by Judas
mizzle & char
unleavened
humus & hymns

harp silently
annunciating
missal prayers
dreams of harvest
bleeding seeds onto
the very earth
