A Small Sacrifice Poem by David Kowalczyk

A Small Sacrifice

Rating: 4.0


His innocence was erased
last year by the lion priest,
who consumes
young boys.


His childhood is forever destroyed.
He is lost in astral clouds,
in constant prayers
to obscure saints,
child martyrs all.

Nicely done. You address a very delicate subject and manage to avoid the usual pitfalls connected with it: self-pity and demonizing an entire group.
