(I Refuse to Pray)

by Chelsea Dingman

That’s a lie. But Jesus, I don’t know you or your father. My father & daughter are dead

& I am not equal to this anger. I am the south Florida summer rains that know no mercy. I am the knife

-edge of night. The edge of the pond where someone once drowned. Where have you been hiding?

Green blades of grass are ghosts now. It’s winter. Forty degrees. Frost has set in. The alligators

have disappeared from water holes. Only the crows sit on tile roofs, waiting for what we’ll throw away.

Charm me. Harm me. It’s all the same. In the distance: a pink sky. Sirens. A stoplight, changing on a timer.

See my stomach? Look: it sags like a six-month-old balloon. The skin, stretched into a makeshift shrine.

Can you hear me? I want less sky. Less sun. Less weather. Listen: the wind

is blessing every door. In the hush of night -fall, I almost hear snow, even here. I am almost

home, in this body. Almost something holy.

Tell me, instead, you hold my emptiness like a window holds the sky.

— Wintersong, Chelsea Dingman

[text ID: December’s cold comes to pity us again, / fields stormed by dry riverbeds & dead leaves. / I’m afraid, but I don’t want to tell you.]

[ardent-reflections]

When the sun lowers / its jaw to the earth, I finally know / how to disappear.
