A confessional paints her face
She'd not wakened before sobbing
Hateful scratching in her voice
Her choking prayer muffled by shame
It wasn't to be a day about the garden
Oceanic creature falling above our roof
Bending noises out of her crucifixes frames
Tasking her with direction
The winters first hard breaking upon us now
