an almost accidental gathering of poets

GONE AWAY
When my body leaves me
Iīm lonesome for it.
Iīve got

eyes, ears,
nose and mouth
and thatīs all.

Eyes
keep on seeing the
feather blue of the

cold sky,
mouth takes in
hot soup,
nose

smells the frost;

ears hear everything, all
the noises and absences,
but body

goes away to I donīt know where
and itīs lonesome to drift
above the space it
fills when itīs here.
