Tracing Flight Individual & Collective Writing Sessions
@ Le Salon, The Garage, Chapter Arts Centre. May 09

Lantern shines
perfectly,
lights
Arabic circular
patterns.
Notes travel
through an old garage
in Canton.
Shape of East
contained.
Lantern hung
bold yellow orange,
against patterned flowers.

Will I travel to Africa
again?
Unlikely.
The thought of its
roughness
dirt track roads
frightens my fragile form.
Yet my spirit still
remembers
an experience
where I grew
beyond the person
I was.
That time I walked
Mount Sinai in the early hours.
