The Holy Universe Needs Recharging

written by: Tristan Cody

@TristanCodyPoet

There is a holy universe of book bags
and dirty little hands reaching in them.

But each day the hands become fewer
the books become lighter
the bags become withered
the universe becomes weightless.

the holy becomes kindled and it needs sleep.
