Holy of Holies

Part 1

The people enter

ascension of mind and soul

and body.

We face the East

and approach the curtain

but no further.

 

Through the royal blue,

the holiest walk

with lavish confidence of place

to business class.

 

Part 2 

My wife is stuck in the Holy of Holies,

blocked by the temple servants

and their carts of grain offerings.
