Prayer and Healing

In the vicinity of  Children's Fairyland

They once had a functioning

 US Post Office for kids

The Flaneur's chassis has been 

aching a bit more than usual,

took a day of rest and quiet

 Fell in love with a date palm

 Went into Christ the Light

 Knelt down and I prayed

 

 Lamb of God

You Take away the sins of the earth

Have mercy on me

Come up to the Altar

 The communism 

of mysticism

Catholic
Aesthetic

Spirit

While all else falls to ruin

 Faith sustains

 Canonization of our latest saint

After I shot this

I saw a sign prohibiting

all photography and recording

of all kinds

Would Jesus delete

the previous photo?

 I took one more 

on the outside of the shrine,

A nun of St Theresa's order 

passed by

 Next thin I knew

I was across the estuary 

looking back

 Strange marking on the bottom

left by a civilization

 as yet unknown

Through the looking glass

fountains of Fairyland

 Civilization comes right up

to the edge

 The usual suspects down at the pier

a motley crew indeed

 For those who gave their lives

in the war for oil

 Mesmerizing reeds

in the gentle breeze

 Everyone loves pumpkins

 I know I do

Love
