The verdict blasts from the wall-mounted TV. The diners, mostly white, freeze, and the silence falls over the room. Suddenly, clapping, cheering, and yelling from waiters and the kitchen staff.
A Room of My Own: God, Rid Me of God
-
slanted sunlight
through stained glass windows
as I pray hard ...
finally tired of me
Time leaves me alone
jab by jab
right hook after left hook
at its head...
