On Divine Mercy Sunday
Above all, don’t lie to yourself.
-Father Zossima in The Brothers Karamazov
On Palm Sunday a shortage of palms
On Divine Mercy a shortage of mercy
An onion, a candle, a moment, a prayer -
We’d better give something of ourselves away

A poem is itself; an onion might be more than itself.
