1
A dispatch from the icy mist,
2
two rosy cheeks that I once kissed.
3
You'll see me go
4
My head's already out the door,
5
thinking a month out maybe more.
6
and few would follow
7
somewhere a violin bows and a rock a rolled
8
Prison boxing got to me
9
the toughest fights you rarely see
10
beyond the bars
11
and all the fists and gloves
12
a cruising waits with eyes swelled shut
13
and look at them
14
no one wins
15
till my friends say
16
"how are you? It's been too many years."
17
And I say, with purity and candor,
18
"I've missed you."
19
So bring your poppies home to us
20
forget the roses, buttercup.
21
There'll be no need.
22
We'll plant on robot row and promise in the ground below,
23
That there will be more.
24
So swing wide the doors
25
and not yet bury that I'm ready for.
26
I won't press you in a book,
27
a flat brown shell of what you were.
28
I'll never need another look.
29
Cause I'm not proud, I'm not ashamed,
30
I'm not at risk of forgetting your name.
31
You are unending.
32
I found some peace in
33
and when my friends say
34
"how are you? It's been too many years."
35
And I say, with purity and candor,
36
"I've missed you."
