he showed up at a Syrian wedding
to eke out the wine,
as was his wont.
though his suffering didn't linger
like the last time,
there weren't enough fragments
to stage a comeback,
and he didn't get the chance
to ask that we be forgiven.
on reflection,
i suppose it wouldn't have held water
for him to claim that
the "only essential",
endless "christian" warriors
still "know not what they do".
