The Ides Of March
Who’d thunk
we’d reach the end so quickly
fingers plucking strings
playing into the air
softly you remember
what is lost
& what is left
to lose
forever comes on fast
there is no need to look
for anything
now the pages I was marking
slide into night

Jupiter is bright
in the country sky
you have your moments in the dark
and your own
words
standing down
the riff
returns
the dead
all around us

Wyrd
Weir are you
things are expanding and shrinking at the same time
who are they coming for
it has to be us

of you
are still reverberating
in my mind
who and where you are
There

mourning morning
rinse and repeat
the pain comes over
and
we have passed Mahwah
on the Highway
heading up
in the daylight
trees turning
deeper
touching can not be separate
from this
last night I dreamed of a stranger
I did not want
but I woke up next to you

I threw the cards over and over
trying to read the room
the voices inside of here
whoever they are
I am
listening
one more time over the rocks
exchanging looks
is it too late to say those words
the tongue wants
