Anointed and Being Anointed

By Anonymous

Sunday
Beauty of the music
impoverished little chapel
fifty-three children
baptized
mothers, fathers, babies, sponsors
down the line
anointing
one,frail, malarial
baby
musters a smile
suffering and death
hand and hand
slips into dark consciousness
silent prayer, applause
the celebration
finished
