***
|
|
|
|
kings are we
|
|
this band of three
|
|
our splendor gleams
|
|
for all to see
|
|
|
|
and we trek on
|
|
to yonder end
|
|
to greet the babe
|
|
in stable pen
|
|
|
|
some years with legs
|
|
some years without
|
|
lasered glass
|
|
or wooden cutout
|
|
|
|
Christmas lights
|
|
in constant prayer
|
|
ceaseless trek
|
|
up wooden stairs
|
|
|
|
every year
|
|
bodies grow smaller
|
|
featureless
|
|
Holy Mother
|
|
|
|
to ceramic slivers
|
|
we will all erode
|
|
no more gifts for
|
|
us to bestow
|
