Truth ~ Poems by Susannah Anderson — Adult

Truth
is fallen in the street. Her walker
tipped in the gutter,
ankle snapped. Can't get up,
old bones like straws

softly now
slide her in tie her down
gently Coddle her.
Watch for shock.

Ask her the date
Take note; confused
and wandering
Humour her.

Truth wandered alone
into the street
in walker and nightgown
looking for yesterday

*After Isaiah 59:14
