Mending: Two Variations
Mending wall, Manuel,
do your fingers fantasize
being Claude Monet’s?

Mirage Mender burnishing
shadows with sunlight.

In this oasis
all mirages fall away—

Shadow Sweeper
Blindly determined
to keep herself from sin, she
grabbed her sturdy broom
and swept away the shadows
that leered at her like demons.

Deep quagmires of sin
can be swept away, my dears,
with a sturdy broom.
