scars from the ups
stigmata from the downs

fire fight under a   starry  tropical sky
seen
shaman performing sacred rites  
discovered

purple dragon fly’s
don’t see the purple ones much
I walk in grey soup
thinking
different
place

obscured
Obscured: keep from being seen; conceal
ancient roads
one waits   in the next room
pointing at her watch
I am late
searching
a
sister of mercy
Sisters of Mercy are Roman Catholic women of faith who commit to serve God & serving those in need.
give us
a drink
give us
a spliff
give us
comfort

I must leave
Clarity: the quality of being coherent and intelligible
clarity
the next room waits
just not tonight
