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
