Almost

ALMOST A BIOGRAPHY

Almost every poet I read in admiration
and awe has gone to that greater eternity

that other dimension without time
words and endless moments, endless reunions,

but this is just a guess of that unknown
no matter how many times I think about it
dissect the metaphysics, it is an abyss I’ll someday dive
Into,

so today I’ll commune and break bread with the dead
as Auden said, who is dead and drinking in that other bar

these notes live now but who knows
where they’ll end up in time, in the story of this world.
