motionless, and the center of the universe.
They knew the human body could not withstand

They knew that the way to salvation was
exorcising witches and slaying non-believers.
They knew that it was a mortal sin to marry
someone of a different skin color.

to receiving whatever life throws at us -
with Gratitude. Have NO Expectations of life.

for the tree veiled in the season's first frost,
