Читать книгу Stony the Road - Harold J. Recinos - Страница 12

the preachers of ancient texts

are guiding their thirsty flocks

to the nearest brooks in good

faith. the ungodly campaigns

in the changing hours, rejected

beggars on the church steps,

the forgotten poor with yokes

around their neck, the children

who stumbled away from mud

floor dwellings, mothers at the

gates crying for bread with infants

on their knees, the dry bone voices

filling the air, the innocent who

wait for water to become wine, the

tongues that mock the vulnerable

from sun up till down, hear today

from a preacher’s lips a holy word

about infidelities in the world still

delivering God to the cross.
