NaPoWriMo Year 5 Day 22: Poem that invokes a specific object as a symbol of a particular time, era, or place.

They look at the world through a telescope,
Shooting star perspective revives their hope,
Almost enlightened, trying to cope,
Mystery bathed in ash and soap,
Would you let the wind catch your sails?
Moonlight, candlelight and candy ales,
We carry on, we must prevail,
Wholly ordinary holy grail.
