With Confidence
by Loretta McKeever
daily
for several months
I pause
to walk behind you
and Isaac
with my own son
roads and roads
away
I envy
your three day
retreat,
calamitous though
it may be
many read
your heart
with confidence
and vie to speak
for you
nearly all are loud,
frightening
the ram
in the thicket
