CHAIR
Some chairs are comfortable -
the soft seated ones - padded.
Some chairs are serious - like
the wooden ones in classrooms.
We spend so much time sitting.
I sit here on this wooden bench -
taking a moment in this church
to pray for those in tight situations -
in court rooms - waiting for the
jury to come back with a verdict.
I grab the arm rest - because
the rest of someone’s life is
in jeopardy - waiting to hear
what’s next. They are facing
a possible life sentence.
