my pumpkin is no longer with us
with me
as of this morning
and now my dining table is empty
gone the cheerful color, the simple eyes
the end of april -- how?
longer than its companions, gutted and carved
saved to live on, oversee puzzles
and quiet breakfasts with comics
i hope it was the right choice
that it appreciated the time
goodbye in a dumpster is no way to go
but we all turn, we all give in the end

justme
side note
While this blog's original purpose was to keep myself honest in my practice of doing daily justwrites-- 10-minute freewrites from some unusual starting points-- it has meandered to occasionally include other sorts of writing, to address other goals, and to even include other authors. Now, its main function is as a sort of verbal/ thought outcropping in public view. These are not polished pieces, and most are completely rough drafts. As some pieces may be developed through revision, your comments are most appreciated.
