We took turns throwing rocks
at the empty church’s windows.
The two of us trying to
get higher than the other.
The stained glass shattering
made the empty building sound like a ghost.
I felt like a wheat field. My body was harvest.
We were rough handfuls of dust.
Birds flew overhead. Dark freckles of sky.
I tried counting them,
but they were too far to touch.
