Barefoot Pilgrims Frozen Mid-Step on Labyrinth in at the foot of a stone altar in Kirkuk

Barefoot Pilgrims Frozen Mid-Step on Labyrinth

by Juanita Grimes

Dim devotional light spills across a stone labyrinth carved into the floor of a cathedral in Kirkuk. Barefoot figures stand motionless within the winding paths, their feet pressed against cold masonry under shadowed arches. Stones and fabric hang suspended in the air, frozen perfectly mid-fall around the walkers. The early autumn air remains still, casting quiet shadows along the rough walls. A stone altar anchors the far end of the wide view, its surface worn by time. Dust motes do not drift; they hold their positions like solid particles. One thread of light catches the edge of a floating stone, revealing its rough texture against the deep darkness.
