the pool
clasping her hands
the child prayed
not for peace or love
but for something only a child would seem to want
desperately, hungrily
before the world caves in and the child wants something less
imagining the crisp water and the splash of its waves
she begged,
dear god
hallow be thy name
please give me a pool
it would be so cool
