BETWEEN THE LINES
Stone-pillowed, the ways
of remoteness. And written in your palm,
the road.
Home, then, is not home
but the distance between
blessed
and unblessed. And whoever puts himself
into the skin
of his brother, will know
what sorrow is
to the seventh year
beyond the seventh year
of the seventh year.
And divide his children in half.
And wrestle in darkness
with an angel.
