Red Sky
Traffic comes to a halt
along the Sacred Way.
Were the drivers
not glued to their radios,
They'd see the initiates
moaning and weeping
while gazing skyward,
Imploring the gods
for an explanation.
Birds bathe in the sun's
blood.
White marble takes on
an orange hue.
It's the end of the world!
Yet how calm and collected
everyone is.
