WINDEX

Sometimes we notice when our glasses are dirty -

so too the front windshield in our car  – but we 

don’t notice when our soul is spotty or streaky

and could use some Windex or a good washing.

Then again, maybe we’re lazy and we prefer to stay

in the dark – to avoid the hard work of understanding

and the holiness of clear thinking. Maybe we want

a dark window so we don’t have to see into our soul.
