SEEING RED
It was a gift to be able to see
an occasional aura.
Once when she saw red
she knew the woman who
was pouring out her soul
had had second thoughts
..
like a criminal angered
that he had confided
in a priest
but she resolved
to be as silent
as the sea
... the sea
which turns red
rivers of sound
into ultraviolet
jewels

(Everyone who practices can teach himself to see auras. Some recommend staring to the right
or left of someones head for a while. Soon a pattern of colors should emerge.
When another's aura prism passes through our own, our own aura changes the colors.)
