I can't wait to say goodbye to everybody. I can't wait to have nobody On my back, cancer In my life. Aloneness is the light of my dreams I cut through like jungle vines With Anaklusmos. These buzzards eclipse the sun in their circling Black wings outreaching Every flying arrow. I try to be good: I speak, I talk, I chat, I try. But, with people, as Opposed to poetry, These words never really speak to me.

To Say Goodbye
I can't wait to say goodbye to everybody. I can't wait to have nobody On my back, cancer In my life. Aloneness is the light of my dreams I cut through like jungle vines With Anaklusmos. These buzzards eclipse the sun in their circling Black wings outreaching Every flying arrow. I try to be good: I speak, I talk, I chat, I try. But, with people, as Opposed to poetry, These words never really speak to me.
just about the desire for aloneness
