david matherne
pipe organs—dusty and tarnished—
bellowed the ancient song,
as movers carried the pews
for one last time.
frozen branches—heavy with ice arms— 5
couldn’t perform their dance,

sally richards—broken and mourning—
watched while her father left, 10
as painters brought in their cans

stained-glass windows—buckled and broken—
surveyed commotion’s cause
as commerce won in the end 15

reverend richards—feeble and finished—
cried as his exit was lost
on christians who worshiped the dime;
a change of the times. 20
the poet uses words and images to create a tone that is
