Geldrop

Netherlands

I hear them call me and picture two mechanical dancers clasping, parting,
vanishing,
like the intrils of a Swiss Clock

I stand outside the Church, at the railings, locked out from the inside I push my
arms like St Bernadette
denied a mystical experience
I see flowers through the railings tied to the seats waiting for a wedding
But the flowers are prisoners too, dead ones at that where I yearn to be.
