By Marko Vesin
see the violets afire
nailed to walls of granite
three virgins walk the desert
their arms cut lengthwise
their wrists bound
and they will see
know
trust
reveal
be
crowd
lust
feel
bestial passions
celestial sacrifice
walking on dead steps
fighting for burial mounds
speaking in foreign tongues
dancing on hallowed ground1
