Bringing Back the Living

The supple curve of the mind
beseeches a distant thought
to venture out

into the open spaces
where I left you
like a shard
of a shattered clay pot,

admonished for an unknown sin
or some unspoken emotion forgotten,
slouching near a silent cradle,

lost in a dark cravasse
or a echoing tomb
waiting for prayers
and intercessions
to bring back
the living.
