mo(u)rning
"they told me, heraclitus, they told me you were dead
they brought me bitter news to hear and bitter tears to shed.
i wept as i remembered how often you and i
had tired the sun with talking and sent him down the sky.
and now that thou art lying,my dear old carian guest,
a handful of grey ashes, long, long ago at rest,
still are thy pleasant voices, thy nightingales, awake;
for death, he taketh all, but them he cannot take. "
(william cory)
(everyday
i wish more
i'd have (re) met you
before.
.....
so much.)
