some food
some entertainment
a little rest
some darning
some poetry
and maybe darning again
then a drive
to a goodbye
and who knows after that

it feels like an end of an era
but there were so many eras inside of it
it’s hard to say what is finality
and what continues on
and what has already passed
into
the past

September 30, 2023

September flew by
in a matter of seconds
days filled with
stress and driving
and planning and writing
and arriving
in time to say goodbye
and the weeks between now and back then
feel like blips
made of minutes that took forever
and this whole month
took no time at all
