not seeing
the room is white
until that red apple
Anita Virgil
————————————————
I did not see the monk on fire
But I did see the stone in the kitchen
What was lost slowly returned
Locked away, perhaps
As a protective gesture
For not to see clearly
Could be more trouble
Than not to see at all
Yet, eventually
The full truth
I what will likely
Bring salvation
