WAITING ROOM



Wait. 
Let my eyes accommodate.
I peer:
shaded forms loom, a chair –

but I can’t be sure.
This has been my journey now for years.
The lights are dimmer
in the rooms beyond.

The switch
from cones to rods -
takes time.  I see

purples, browns,
twilight tones –
a Lloyd Rees painting
from his last days.

I wonder with each move
from one room to the next
how many more there are?

I can only wait and try to see.
