Tell me what you think this poem means?

me Asked by in2themusic 3 months ago, 3 answers.

Black cathedral centered,
onix laid, Michelangelo's
pieta

rosy and sapphire stainedglass
cast apon the marble floors
dancing light, steps echo like dripping rain as it falls from my cheeks.
let me walk as a shadow past the oak pews
colored by the...

violet sun

to the altar
a midnight slab of smooth stone
bare and cold,

lay a hand down to this ode for the requiem

icy steel.

so let the fruit of the earth

drink the warmth from your veins

He's walking through the church at twilight, sunlit through stainglass windows, crying, to this altar:

It depicts Jesus after the crucifixion, in Mary's arms.

It seems a cold surface is drawing heat from his hands veins. I think fruit of the earth means farm produce (as opposed to figurative fruit from other sources). But I'm not sure.
