Over the plate of the same Dinner was made yesterday The river falls down the face Again and probably in vain Oh so gravity of mind Will be company tonight Will make the meaning of tonight The stomach fills without thought No one is where was left off Too predictable for hope A hundredth birth as a ghost So shadow, spiral, and I Will be company tonight Will make the meaning of tonight Is possible but is rare Shake it off out of the hair Color the face and the clothes Watch the stories of heroes A truer friend writes to me Life is never not crazy The ones who realize can see And continue on I do Until the mirage of you I can only be reduced Into a loosening screw Or even only a worm Who with even all its work Is long out too far from the dirt Over the what have I done Over the what's it come to Suppose it time to concede To one last look at the moon With shadow more me than me Who's letting go is it I Who makes the meaning of tonight And continue on I do Until the mirage of you I can only be reduced Into a loosening screw But I will still wash the plate And dare myself to be light And make some meaning of tonight
