Vidi Aquam
Mesmerized inside -
reeling from
winds of change,
and only God knows
how many false prophets,
dreams and voices,
I saw water gushing
from a hydrant
on Houston street
near the church
where the Child
touches Anthony
so gently
so gracefully.
Water flooded the
streets
pouring out
like a miraculous
healing font,
and once it
touched and swirled
around my feet,
there was
Peace.
