Requiem in Retrospect

Requiem in Retrospect

A Poem by Jerusalem Cricket
"

Said that kid's got a gun.

"
you are in the trees,
the twisted branches
that missed chances
to hold hands with
the here, the now

swim thru infinity
somber wanderer,
may you find your
filigree fortune

forever sleep in
springtime orchards

smile, the pressure's
gone lax;
let us lay down...

backs to the bare ground

leave your vessel
to the soil
but your being
to the sky
