OBSERVING HOW POPE LEO XIV RESEMBLES POPE PIUS XI

The same faces repeat
again and again as masks
before the minds,
no human wears one
that hasn't evoked
grief, hate, love
and lust in the long
dead or distant;
shared across time
and space sometimes
the mask worn by people
in the same position
at a similar time,
dices rolling
the same result,
same face, same
troubles, the world
teetering at the edge
of an abyss, and lurching
over to a man-made
doom. The endless
return, but how pathetic
are were not breaking
the cycle, creating
new and lasting
things, even if
all the faces
are old.
