A nail from the true cross repurposed as a snaffle bit
by Constantine the Great leaves us at a loss
as to why anyone would counterfeit
a nail from the true cross
merely to serve as a gloss
on Zechariah and fulfill a prophecy in Holy Writ.
The bridle-makers of Byzantium continue to emboss
a cheekpiece with a motto that will indeed befit
a rider doomed to flail in a bloody fosse
wearing a helmet-spike that isâon the face of itâ
another nail from the true cross.
A Quickie
In a hardtack factory
on Water Street
we entertain the suspicion that victory
is rarely if ever sweet
