In theory it was a game:
hide and seek
she was
in between
library stacks
standing near
Natural Sciences
hiding her face behind the Journal of
Artificial Intelligence
In the fall it was supposed to be a trip -Colorado
she was
supposedly visiting some friends from college
in between ski trips, but
standing in our closet were her skis
hiding behind old raincoats and a quilt
In the hospital during vising hours, the last time I saw her
she was
on the open ward, standing by herself
hiding herself behind the face of someone I did not know
