12 september

a tall tall ship and a star to sail her by

what else do people what? need?
to get out of life?
to leave behind?

vision of a coffin in the cool windy shadow of rain
covered in flowers
surrounded by family

how much to give
sometimes hoping to receive
getting too little
at least to be satisfied

trying to be true and kind
also to myself

bluffing the listener
twisting the sense

how to rearrange the molecules
fool memory
plainly see not what is there
