#1130 - they have left us

 


1130

4.ii.23

4.35

they have left us 

for ghost writing  


simple as 

words in a pile 

a touch and fade


ivy up treeside 

drawer of such socks 

no darn 


the dead again

they have left us

still


no choice in the matter 


mean nothing to 


we continue the conversation 


namelessly 

it’s light pours from 


their breath is now distributed

their clothes are such as soil


a shorthand for simple past they’ve been

now continuously gone 


a terrible ending and then 

we must all sing with them
