Moveable Feast


Be it good or then bad…

defined after the fact

 

Acceptance—rejection,

a dog or a cat

 

The goals of Centurions,

or those of a Priest

 

Different agendas,

a moveable feast

 

Be it virtue or vice,

their adherents will claim

 

Then shout from the rafters,

 to freely rename

 

But in for a penny,

or out for a pound

 

A lasting consensus

—will never be found

 

(St. David’s Pennsylvania: October, 2020)
