pOety
As the pen's
Intuitiveness
Leaves a print
I gladly yield
To its intrusion
RETURN TO TOP
Descending
Isolated
She lay on
A single bed
Not a waking ray
Or a soothing song
Is permitted
She smiled
Throwing her bony arms
To hold me close
I caressed
Her hands and cheeks
With hope
But letters
On her chart brandished thorns
Decreased her physicality
For her
The Shechinah*
Is visible
Like
Descending pollen
In the wilderness
*Shechinah - divine presence
