A dagger, a chalice, <br />A heart filled with dread; <br />Invisible palace- <br />The peace of the dead. <br /> <br />A war and a promise <br />That's better not said, <br />No more doubting Thomas: <br />The populace bled.<br /><br />Patti Masterman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-peace-of-the-dead/
