PRIEST WALKING

I’m walking down the white vinyl
hospital corridor - walking by
person after person after person.

I give each person a “Hi” or “Morning!”
or a wave and a smile. Some smile
back. Some “Hi” back. Some scowl.

At that moment I realize - because of the
collar - I represent every priest they ever 
met. Is that why I get a smile or a scowl?
