The Medium

I cannot think with all this
loneliness: hallway
of too many doors that meet
and sound.

Leaving is to run
the gauntlet. Barbed elbows,
a woman's slapdash perimeter
of hearsay and hush.

Some atomic light
at the entrance ebbs
and you are many men now -

The hollow you beside you
through which I'll pass.
