Starched Rabbat

I saw a priest rushing yesterday
Through town.
How queer.
When I told you
You agreed
And recalled how cold it has become.
It has become cold.
Colder than a brass knuckle
Held aloft
Above a grave.
And this season that priest will stand
Aloft
Above this grave.
It will.
As it was
It will be again.
