THIS BE THE CURSE


It f---s you up does love.
It doesn't mean to,
but it does.

Those thoughts and feelings
become tired and old hat,
over night.

Misery is never that far
from your back door;
it deepens

like a river after rain.
And the pain returns
like an old friend

penniless.

Sleep now,
and let this day pass:
the birds will stay

roosting in bare trees;
and the rain will turn
and fall as snow...

becoming black ice.
