I am.


Like stained glass shards
Filling this tumbler.

Like the broken bones
Protruding from my legs.

A cricket calling in the infernal night,
A cicada calling in the futile daylight.

The slow steady walk
Of respect disappearing.

A bardiche
In the hands of a silhouette.

My memory ashamed
The ghosts of yesterday creep through the window.

Your name floats
On a turbulent ocean.

I put a shipment of kisses and apologies
Onto a paper boat.

Like an afternoon saying good bye
That boat sails out of the estuary.


~Adoration of a ghost.

Love,
Digress.
