Dedicated to an Old, Good Friend.

-+-
when a man is kind
he lays down his coat
to flickers of shared pasts
memorized in rote

tickled he may be
like feathers under skin
caught unawares of this life
and how it did begin

he’s more than simply trying
he succeeds where napoleon fell
no fears of affections dying
oh what secrets he could tell

when a man is kind
he lingers by the door
as her presence slips away
he wishes for just moments more

drowning man
who will save you from yourself
from those speckled roses
that decorate your shelf

he’s more than simply trying
he succeeds where napoleon fell
no fears of affections dying
oh what secrets he could tell
