A footprint on the road to Santiago
It has meaning – a footprint, and another
An indent from the ferrule of a stick
Toward a vision of a Field of Stars
Sin-weary and sunburnt, a pilgrim plods
Through weeds and dust and sometimes traffic lights
And idlers mocking from across the road
Toward a vision of a Field of Stars
Where free from sin and pain and blood and scars
He may at last find peace in that Field of Stars
