Equal Pieces
Then all of a sudden the wind ceased
Someone shut off the bathroom faucet
The secret agreement was consummated
The man with a finger on his lips
nodded “yes” The short woman
made the sign of cross with her hand
on the forehead of the sleeping child
I saw the shadow of her hand on the wall
between an Apollo lithograph
and the Crucifix embroidered in satin cloth
