The Incident
Incidentally, I find no reason why you follow my winding footsteps —
lit by my blind pathos, through the cemeteries,
carved in the elemental virtues of my mind,
You follow ever closer brushing up against my irritating thoughts — of
this but perhaps not — of that
It’s getting dark now, I’d advise you to turn away, the thistled road
ahead is strewn with after matter,
after hours trading matters insignificant to the margins of time, but
suspended, threatening to forever hold you in the figments of
some imaginative godless endeavor
I’ve just come to place wilting blooms upon their grave, and
then I too will go, respectfully,
Ahhhh, my love, my love, my love,
how do you idle your time beneath
the weight of the ponderous rain,
the deathly veil of time meridian,
Ahhhh, my love, my love, my love,
If you’ll allow me I will lighten your load,
My threnodies, to undisturb your restless repose,
“You are always on my diligent mind, but
never ever on the leaning posture of my
conscience”.
