miracles

he speaks of miracles
wants to see one
a big one

fingers lost in the lathe
woven back on

partially paraplegic grandfather
tossing his walker away

dialogue slips to a rant

cancer screenings coming back clean

barren moms birthing babies

all the lost ones
loved

the tired monk finally slips in one word

pray

pray?!


yes

praying is a miracle

  3. as simple as praying
    is a large miracle
    to be able to talk
    to ones god and not be
    kept seperate
