Cloud of unknowing:
a hospital bed. A hallway
full of sounds
likely meant for others
or perhaps this time for you,
the voices of better angels
come to give you comfort.
Cloud of unknowing:
the ceiling above, the
holes in the tiles that likely
lead nowhere except for the One
that opens into a tiny gateway
to the peace that may be waiting
when you leave.
Cloud of unknowing:
when you rise from forgetting
to an awareness of how little
is in your control but you decide
to rest while you can. You will
return to the world soon enough
but for now, you choose
the cloud where all you can do
is wait, and marvel, and heal.

Prayer is caring, so praying for your recovery. (I’m assuming this is about yourself. )

Nope. My dad, a band member’s uncle, and fan of the band are all hospitalized right now.

Well, you got the prayers. I’ll switch. Hope they do well. Glad it’s not you.
