FURTHER

I am in the church of God

Stone surrounds me

Lights burn above me

Catching mosaic, shimmering

There is a lady whose blouse is

White where the sun comes in.

Pockets of shadow beckon

A woman with a stooped back

Walks back and forth

From door to door.

She looks right through me

And I am beginning to remember

That I am not really there

She is talking in Spanish

Focusing on something I can not see.
