The words are pealing
on a moist Tuesday morning
to be a reminder of the mortality
of all. The pain, a burning ocean causes
while it pours through the fist,
and the fist pushes through the heart.
And we mourn you, my friend,
to forget you once walked in
a Praha market to buy strawberries, to
take photos, and send them where
you were loved by a mother cradle to
grave. But do not ask me where,
and do not ask me when the earth will be
pawing the air for your rebirth.
