through double doors
and we start out
carving path through new snow
on road heading to highway
with wind pulling and pushing the
car
and snow obscures vision
drifting across asphalt in
curling serpents of
pride
and innuendo
and anger
going slow through
built-up snow
so we turn around
and go back
fighting wind on the
other side
we’ll try again tomorrow
when reading from Luke 2
and heartfelt prayer can begin
to bring peace to these
stormy hearts
