give us this day our daily bread. 10.1.09 |

every night
is my contrition
like the Mayans
praying for sunrise

every night
a new battle
to find wisdom
knowledge word thought
for the days to be
tolerable

every night
on the sacrificial altar
I set myself knowingly
between death and life
caught in limbo
the burden of Sisyphus

every night
I try to appease
the unpleasable
unappeasable god
and abraham slew Isaac
and the seed of
Europe one by one

every night a new religion
every night the same derision

every night a new contusion
every night the same conclusion

I weep and keep
the sleepless light burning
for some bleak salvation
   every
      single
         night
