Spark

An untethered dream
Weaves through clouds of wonder,
While the stream of hope
Lies clogged with ash below.
Gods abandoned us!
There’s nothing holy here.
Despair cloaks our hearts;
Our gaze drops to the ground.
Memory’s tendrils
Grasp with tenacity—
Could our faith renew
With a spark of kindness?
