Living in the New Town
our town is not old merely fifty years and some the first houses still stand as do some munitions plants built during the war where nations united under God defeated Satanic evil
talk to anyone today about the war that’s the one they’ll remember costing thirty million lives for peace
not
The War that goes on even today costing billions for eternity
the physical vs. the spiritual
I live here in a town scarce old enough to stand built for war but, lasting longer, to war a stranger no gracious stone cathedrals grace our busy streets save one of brick on Church an economy of spirit marks our burgh and for that alone I grieve
newer buildings stand but the light once so wide revealed stands contained and cradled close
I was recalling the lights playing along the skin of the cathedrals in my old town, lamenting the fact that there are none here in my new town. I discovered that something else appears to be lacking as well that was once so common.
