(Ash Wednesday 2011)
The push and pull
Tugging, yanking, jerking
Fibers of the soul.
The longing, the desire
Enticing, deceiving
As in a smoky haze.
Blurred photograph,
Faded newspaper clipping
Juxtaposed to
Scarlet roses, diamonds
The sweetest taste of
Chocolate on the tongue.
Inch by inch stepping
Deeper into the wood
The path is wholly lost.
