The Saturday of Holy Week: waiting, waiting–being still, living with the horror for a whole day, waiting. And their waiting was not in expectation of resurrection. More like: so now what? How do I explain this? Perhaps I’ll just quietly walk back down to the dock and see how my fishing boat is. Anyone want to come?

Clouds run from the horizon
Crows fly single file

YES! The whole poem pivots on the musical notes. Brilliant.
Tattoo–OOOooo. I see quarter notes, maybe eighth notes all on the staff. Exquisite tune. Point and counter point. More please.

A composition.
Awesome. I complete forget that they do NOT expect the resurrection. This makes me think about Saturday totally different. Should be Black Saturday.
A murder of crows is always a bad omen. I imagine there was a lot of head scratching wondering if they missed a memo along the way somewhere. Did any of them really put any stock into the "three day" thing that he was talking about. Doubt and cynicism has a field day.
