In the distance someone’s asking why it won’t stop hurting, and the church is working like a round, everyone trying to start something new, but all anyone can say is what they’ve said before, old stories, old prayers all that’s breaking through. From “Radiotherapy” by Jake Adam York (1972 - 2012). Deeply saddened to hear news of his passing today. Our thoughts go out to his family and friends.

In the distance someone’s asking
why it won’t stop hurting,
and the church is working like a round,
everyone trying to start
something new,
but all anyone can say
is what they’ve said before,
old stories, old prayers
all that’s breaking through.
