Cross, do not fail me


            Cross, do not fail me
            when it comes my hour
            to bleed. As to a strong-masted vessel,
            let me be bound to you to share your power.
            Hug me close as the wind we together wrestle.
           
            Lost, let them nail me

            as my ransomed soul
            a steed of spirit mounts and my hungers hang.
            Let me inherit what the jailer stole
            and hidden, as I thirst, what prophets sang.
