Prelude: Preparing to Begin
I pass through gates and doors
that define the sacred space,
slow my step,
quiet the chaos,
still the stress.
Willing to put off the natural man,
I cubicle the day’s commotion
and start to change.
I take off my dusty shoes,
remove apparel of the world.
Deliberately, I fold
pretense and distraction,
place them on the narrow shelf.
I hang my bold dress
on the temporary hook
and put on unspotted white.
