Who Will I Worship?

by dominic j. sweeney

There is a Greco temple in Armenia,

unique in its kind - Garni.

It stands alone, cradled by mountain landscape, smattered with green bushes that will greet snowfall in Winter.

I’m sure there are eagles, circling this structure. Perhaps they dart in between its many columns during off seasons.

Free; to nest in its aspects. Caws echoing, travelling to those landscapes, waking surrounding wildlife.

It all feels untouchable. Another world - what could have been.
