The following day refinds me in the maze.
I'm trapped inside for good. It's now quite clear
I'm once more blinded by that figure's gaze.
My mother, rising in a sacred sphere.
Amid such bustling traffic - would she still be there?
I dare not leave my alley-web. She looked
Just like a child, the girl of bygone years -
Her face so full of tenderness, yet spooked.
I see her dress still swirling, marble-slick.
This memory I'm most hard put to shelve:
Her right hand resting lightly on a stick,
She winked at me upon the stroke of twelve.
