Crosses

Haunting
A friend
Friends
Family

I realise
I too am followed
A prevailing childhood souvenir
Appearing in unexpected places
Constantly in the background
Imposing on everyday objects
A sign
A tree
A necklace

Demanding a conscience
And filling it with guilt
The body
The blood
The unholy human urges

Sometimes
Even
I feel an urge
To say grace



(The inspiration: once you see a crucifix once)
