Life is
but a tear-drop
clinging
briefly
to a smile
When I’m gone, I will be
quiet as a mouse;
My scent upon the pillow still,
But I will have left the house.
...
What's expected of this thing called hope;
is it a medicine; is it just smoke?
Merely a screen - perhaps a misty haze,
to sweeten our journey around life's maze?
...
At birth,
a tag on the wrist
generates a list
of places one may roam.
