  精選英文小詩:My Soul

  Sometimes

  When I feel like I'm going to fall apart

  I hold my ribs, all the way around,

  Both sides.

  My ribs hold me together,

  Like glue.

  They keep my breath close to my heartbeat.

  They keep my soul from escaping and

  Leaving me, grounded.

  I hold brightness and shadows in

  The hollow where my ribs meet.

  I hold them there in the memories

  Of slow, sorrowful music and

  Porch steps.

  I hold my ribs, until I feel solid.

  Until my legs are tree trunks and

  My fingers are fruit.

  精選英文小詩:My Sin

  If I know my angels,

  I know what they would say

  ——Joe Henry

  He came to me

  In a whisky-blue dream

  In midtown Manhattan.

  He wasn't angry anymore.

  He seemed happy to find

  Me again, my old self.

  Picking up his ghost guitar,

  He played me a new song.

  He played it sweet and innocent.

  As if he were the world's only child,

  His whole future ahead,

  No pain hidden in that past.

  In some undeserved way, I felt

  As though he had forgiven me

  For the hurtfulness of my words.

  His kindness to me was more

  Genuine than all of my love could

  Ever have been toward him.

  In my dream, I found myself running

  Back and forth in search of forgiveness,

  In search of something greater.

  But each time I was returned

  To wander out my sin in prayer——

  The sleepless turmoil of my penance

  Revealed and served.
