Kit Kelen #1376 - a door slams

1376
a door slams

they are on the way
and quick, the vanishing

dogs crow
swoop roost

show the griefs
a leaf’s long fall, day up with  

once flesh were
then a pointed bone

just so, they topped the clock
give silence gone

they did the cherish
tourists of another age indulge

some for far have fallen
some stood in their socks

the gone are still going
otherwise how with them are we?

sweet was their holding
their kisses once when

and we are here because
must be it falls to us again

touch to be, say, every day
so see me there

they bite, tear strips
picture this and come to heal

drift in, see where
without a thought

were all along
the place in mind

think of the fire
they paid themselves

a door slams
when we wake
