Ruins
Here the king’s men came
and killed the pope’s men
and sacked the church
whose creed required good works
in addition to the merciful grace of God.
Aloof, the ruins stand witness,
crumbling more gracefully than dogma.
This is who we are, this is what we do,
a justifying joy on either hand.
Ad majoram Dei gloriam.
