Stopped for death(not mine-not yours-a friend
Decided to remember him
and she in skin departing
and those on lip of silence
and each unnamed,unnumbered
alone,anonymous,homeless,bereft
i waited for death-then left
it matters (but it is not matter
it has gone(yet it may return!
it is known by many(and too few
it has a (temporary)home in you
If you wondered why this silence
in news devoted to violence
Now new words sprout like mushrooms
to bloom illegal as free feelings
Yes-we did what was prohibited
in our world of laws and fences
but everyone i know is illegal at some time
Now i stand to be surprised
when you swallow media lies
when your own world awaits
the wonders (Sleeping Princess) within you
Awake!awaken!(i am speaking to myself again
and if this has less meaning-may we remember friends
who stopped for death,and did not move again
my trust (in permanence) is transient
are we making progress yet?
or solipsism,s lip servicing...
