it is mostly self
it is mostly self-
preservation that
makes the living fancy
that the dead wants
to have anything more
to do with this not-
letting-go part. i hold
your hand in the dark
before waking and
by dawn, my fingers
are stinging, like a
self-righteous
deficiency, a prickly
reminder that death
is not another chip
on the shoulder, there
is nothing second-
hand about it

it is certainly interesting to see which image you decide to add to the words and to the image i have chosen to match. they are always so dissimilar, and yet fit the words well. thank you, again, for adding this extra level of attention.
