Something nice

November
A call to prayer, a mantra,
like an old, familiar song.
When I'm tied up
in the world and how it's wrong;
when I'm afraid to leave my bed
because of knots
inside my head,
the rain dissolves the rope. Says
"listen." Says "listen." Says
"ssshhh...listen to me
tapping on the window."
And I hope.
