You’re in your own world,
she says

The clock doesn’t tick anymore, one-twenty,
it says

The mail has come, all bills,
he says

The windows don’t open any more,
wedged tight

My brother hasn’t called all week,
she says

I got on the Internet, no email
he says

The doors are all shut, doubly locked,
to be sure

I still love you
he says

I don’t know how to love Him,
the song

Sacraments
broken
