Chapter House

to be trained sick with doubt
put you across

to the, unpleasant, matter 
of naming, and she became

bright by day by day eating
forgetting to pray, but to seek out hearts
was enough, became too clear

sky above troubled
ever so
evensong, lectures on the common law

broadcast for radio forget

them too, not being unkind
but die than be that ministry. 

...

heavy rain from the west
hammered the window.

Clear sky, it means
are you managing to rest? Is the pain a little
quelled? I would have said 

I will come to you soon
it is impossible

a very few streets over
it is my job to 

help you through 

the city is closed.
