They Had Demolished The Nunnery.

They had demolished the Nunnery

on King Street West, death

to the practice, the calling

and the habit

moved on up the hill,

up the mountain

closer to their God.

Empty space and a hole

at least ten feet deep, rubble,

prayers now unanswered

as God hears nothing

from his sisters.
