The Vedanta Temple's bell is hollow: no clapper.
Round wooden posts support the temple's roof.
inside, rows of chairs, each with empty cushion.
Sunlight falls across a portrait of an Indian saint
hanging alone behind a locked iron fence.

Wondering if the temple's grounds had survived
the fire, I stroll outside, where a No Trespassing
sign guards a narrow
path.

There are also paths that can
lead you into the mountains.
