Poems
Jan 2016
Unto the Grave
after the ashes settle,
the wind carries a lone, torn page,
sides of faded text flanked with folds,
deep wrinkles sunk
across its base,
as
celebration
becomes
separation
and
fuzzy ink loses meaning,
in a rip of feeling,
a never-ending grieving,
is not until...
time prunes aged edges,
with adhesive affixed at affliction,
resemblance rises from its words,
before its own ashes blow in the wind.
