grey

damn straight it’s difficult

to keep that line and begin

to find where you now sit

either just atop or below

that garden wall of here nor there

that grey area you used to keep

in mind but since you left him

it’s so difficult to keep him in mind

and lapses of time and worses for wear

and raiders of lost arks everywhere

are waiting for a chance to prove you unsound

and turning all your yellow roses grey.
