Weakly

Sacred glass, mother Mary residing

Caught the attention of mystical starved patrons

Covenent of life. Covenent of love

I'll remove the glass, he said. Put it in safe keeping.

Suction cups and razor blades penetrating the holy

Masks adjusted

The meek shall inherit the earth

Cameras capturing every movement

Vulnerable not an option

Glass gives way to Mary's release.

She is gone

Masked men carry on. Finish the job

Mask intact.
