This Feeling of Closeness
My big question lay elsewhere

in the second meaning of the longest day

at the end of a dirt road running out

fifteen miles to the north of isolation


In the course of thirteen years of sermons

she fell into oblivion throughout the South

hidden away until the mystical age of twenty-six

as far to the North as a clever twist


Thus, dreadful February continued its destiny

to keep the village women yearning for detachment
