“Jesus was led up by the spirit
into the wilderness to be tempted.”
Matthew 4: 1
after 40 abstained days
I am famished but lucid
I am approached and offered
stone -
a loaf of perishable bread
resurrection -
self-betrayal
kingdom come -
nothing but numbered years
after 40 fasted days
I ascend incorruptible - yeast not -
ready toward the pin-hole of splendor
