Lines With Meaning

Residue of life
Promulgation lost in the review mirror
Existence in hindsight
Acquiescence in the malaise
Sadness in the morose
Pragmatics the remainder
Death the hope

An old Jaguar down a gated drive
Covered in leaves
A dead sparrow on its back
I look for it each day
I see my life slipping through my fingers
Like the sands of time
I try to take stock of nothingness

I think about the absence of my children
The adjustments in time
The rejection of my love
The branding of my heart
The absence of kindness and love
I am the smoking residue
In dissipation
