For Krayge..... Poem by RIC BASTASA

it is not the snow
you know its coldness already
you have experienced frost
and perhaps seen the movie about it
how painful can all these be
white, and prickly and
soft perhaps like a gentle flake
but you know how it gets too lonely
most of the time

did you say that you like someone
and then somehow that someone starts
to evade you as though you have
leprosy?

that is a mild form

leprosy used to be that antisocial
but you know that there is more
than what was
that....

Adenine
Infantrymen
Dementia,
Somnolence

take from it
or perhaps scientifically i once taught
you in our faded Physics class

in magnetism Craig, do not forget,
like poles still repel

and it has not changed since then
despite the blending of the
bends.
