Sana My Anima

Sana animam mea
Heal my soul
Cura la mia anima

marble shard
quartz splinter
gathered–sculpted–united
as offering and prayer
for the healing of the soul
– not limb, organ, blood –
but the essence of the self
a vow to be displayed
within the bounds of the museion
so that the gaze
of men and gods
may perceive
the plea
