Haunting the air above yr casket
wafting through the rafters
is a frigid air moving in delicate waves
You could see yr breath
if you were breathing
but they were all here
& I'm still here
because you're not
You're done breathing
You're done paying bills
You're done driving defensively
You're done folding laundry
You're done masturbating
You're done remembering to take yr pills
You're done loving
You're done making plans
No Heaven
No Hell
Just now
& time away from you feels wasted
Can't tear myself away
from yr deathbedside table
Yr memory floating in the
dead air above the pulpit
A naked body in red light that it cannot feel
Hair cascading like there's a wind from above
(JG) Ballard in progress
because there's nothing there or anywhere
that can answer me
My fingers clasp @ the formless vermillion
Just cold nothing
The body's hair hangs like
the tender boughs of innocence
sunken low
groaning under the weight @ their tips
The overripe plums of what could have been
but I failed out of college
& moved back to my home town
where you used to visit on holidays
& my birthday
13 days before Halloween
I was born on a rainy Thursday morning
What else should you have expected?
Water drips from my hair
@ the side of yr casket
It rains in my head sometimes
& I don't know which way is up
I wish you needed me
like I need you
but you're done needing
The bastard son of bad luck
now the genderless grandchild that doesn't call
I guess I'm as sorry as I need to be
Inside / outside / USA
