I see her face traveling
in the glass reflection
of the speeding Metro

her face is every face
and each time it shows,
she melts

at every stop
she is a different woman

her hands hold white rosary
beads like bird eggs

she might have been alone
at the harbor this morning,
beneath a tree that stands
at the edge of grass

she might have thought about
her throat and lips, concluding
they are not a language

she might be remembering
what she responded last night
when he asked how it was
he was lucky enough to have her
share his bed

and she told him angels
watch over both of them

 Current time is 11:50 pm
