Mind is laden…ghost forest
Is shiny like blisters tonight
Oozing yesterday’s rain…
The vanishing shadows will
Scatter again–they always do
They must–but this night
They are mingled mutely…
In sweat-drenched bed I
Visualize my hand tossing
Pebble after pebble, hitting
Each face that lurches
Toward me…
I long to empty the forest
Hear the unforgiven, and
Unforgiving alike
Gasping last gasp…leaving me
Free, in God’s merciful peace

Spot on imagery, sister. Ghost forests are the worst, crowding our night, making us long for “God’s merciful peace.” I know a bit about these, alas.

Oh Sister, thank you–and I’m so sorry you also know about these. You are in my frequent prayers.
