Parked South

Only death can make you think

How we, how you, how I

Manage to endure it all

Yesterday rising to tomorrow fall

Gossamer we are, pulled apart by time

Obsequies has humanity well bound

Drawing us closer toward the brink

That only tenuous joy is all we have

Hollow yet, is that lesson once we learn

Each who arrives must depart again

Yearning will not one’s destiny deny.
