While it had been clear to all that no amount of bandage or patented wound-heal could have saved Francis from these injuries, what had become evident was that prayer could.
Just as the rescue party arrived to see white droplets fall - splat, splat, splat - the seagulls circled in closer and were defecating onto the corpse in the sand.
The calcium white cement was falling into his open chest, and in but once, twice, thrice moments, it was as though the skin had knitted back again and the root had dissolved.
Everyone looked on amidst the feathers and the shrieking … his head, also anointed by the goloputous discharge, here and there spattered with bird poop.
And, miracle of miracles, Francesco awoke from his narcolepsy. He wiped his own eyes, smoothed his hair back from his face and sat up looking sleepy, but as before, healed and resurrected again earthly life.
