holy interlude

i missed you too much today,
it is never like this.

no, no,
i do not like this.

the bright lights turn white to form a big blank
page across which the memory waltz in picture play--

no, no,

look, there is that bridge, no, yes, and look,
there sit you and i.

no.

i prefer to only see it when i close my damn
eyes, not like this.

i must paint it black again to a scene where there is nothing
but a fleeting dream or too.

to one where there is merely a woman who sits
and types out the daily news,

her red nails clacking away before she throws the papers up
to waiting angels hand.

i prefer those days to these.

the light flickered through holy stained glass, i put the pen back in my
shirt and prayed up.
