Your ashes in my hand Beneath a bag of Japanese sand Same fate: Ocean A USPS Worker slapped the "Cremated Remains" Sticker on the box of You $25 and 8,000 miles You in a box I lay you on Bob Marley's Freedom Song Item by item I cry A scar tissue tear and tears I'll learn to dance with A limp like Anne Lamott does I still crave much more Of you than I need But: Who knew palm fronds Are lined in metal too? Memories that Don't fade (illuminate) Don't stale (crisp) Don't mold (cleanse) So Attach a bag of dust to a day dream's balloon Send you off to my fondest memories To the sea To the sea To the sea
