Quit

dustandwanderlust.wordpress.com

Sometimes friends leave
while still here
their shadows flicker

A distinct undoing
of the seam
things fall out
or they don't

The intimacy
once focused and
zoomed in
blurs

Covers are pulled
over memories
that vanish to
another time

A page turns
the book given away
thrown away
or placed on a shelf

We dissipate

 Faceless prayer flags
lost in space

Finally
recognizing

You never did like
my poetry...

  1. There's so much going on in here, it's hard to stay focused. Allegories taking me every which way of the human condition. But then, I always did like your poetry.

  5. No, definitely not about Barb and Michael. Just something that happens sometimes.
