ODE TO HELOISE

Sweet Heloise
Wants
To sing
Though thorns
Pierce our naked
Souls, on our
Barefoot march
Home.

Heloise
Wants
Fierce voices
To ring
Though
Our knees
Sting
From falling
And stubbornly
Stumbling up
To the calling
Ringing bells
Oh Ringing

Heloise
Demands
So we will
March
And chant
And dance
Alone
On our way
Home
