Et tu Brute ?

Et tu Brute ?

A Poem by lee von cleef

Suicide,
Brutal,
Death brutal
Life Brutal
Et tu, Brute ?,

The big a*s tall pine,alive or dead, a lawyers question,
A thousand extra dollars( if you wear your seat belt,)
But dead you will be,

Absent but all your thoughts essence passed on
Their rip ripples in life, wave at emotional tsunami,
Your absence hands all...

Emotional education ,
Quick course in weight gain,
Loss is heavy,
And I,
We are unprepared for its indifference,
And the crumb trail...
Gone now
But the flowers...
Layered on the coffin are internal.


Ya the raw edge is ...

still as the sound,of her absence... is a step in reality.

Life is like a lawyers question...I like the subject,provocative.

But the flowers...
Layered on the coffin are internal.

These lines amazed me,incontestable.

I had coffee... had to make some more. I wonder how many trees hate Sunday mornings around 3 or 4 AM. Sigh.

Life is filled with the stunning power of light and darkness... and too often one overwhelms the other. Your words are stunning. (I saw Julius Caesar at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. Amazing work of art.)
