Sidewalk Altar Call
Cardboard bed
Surrounded by detritus of a
too long life
Try to remember
Last knife and fork
Reaching out
I drift past the edge of
the waterfall
Bend your knee
See those weeds
This dead bird
A broken stick
These stones crumbling
The place of sacrifice
bleeds
From here to there and back
Again
Again
