The Spiritual Director's Library

 by Susan Fox

 
In this room
all thoughts are spoken.
Even as you light the candles,
each recessive fear of our cupboards is extinguished.



There is no need for dishes.
We counted them once and lost them,
while groping for the matches.

There are no mirrors,
ugly lies written on our walls.
Our door is clean

and as we enter here,
we see each other clearly
         by the candles burning in our voices.
