Who Writes the Cross?

Religion of one word
hides in cul-de- sac of suicide.
A homeless body burns the story.

Pain of immaculate knowledge
calls a quit. Were you loyal? I embrace
a hounded rendezvous of the century.

This was a small poem,
without a celebration of the fall of 
the emperor. You stand as a stranger.
