The Reluctant Saint Poem by sreelekha premjit

The Reluctant Saint



in the congregation
there was silence
there was prayer
and he stood up
from the crowd
laughing loudly
he waved his hands
his eyes closed
divinity sat gently on him
heads turned
hearts stopped
but when they turned to him in prayer
he walked out.
