Your
side.
I don’t know where it is
you’re buried
or stand about - immured
inside some urn
Asking didn’t work
then and the chances of success
lessen with time’s passing
It took three years for me to move
across the bed an inch
into your space
I wore this furrow
soft rut
rumpled
plain as daylight
our shallow grave
uncovered
Kerri, powerful!!
