Find Him

Find him
on the wide church lawns
in mid-pantomime, unshoed
unshaven a marionette in monolog
fingers wide and splayed
as wheel spoke

Find him
by the bowl of steaming soup
the simplicity of potatoes 
cubed and bubbling in milk, 
the one with wilderness eyes
and desert soles
he sees and knows 

Find him
in the creases of her hands
where some still say
they see a path
