this is no mirage,

the end of august,

the end of august,
when hopes and dreams bob upon
the final waves of

summer’s mirage, ready to reel
in the big one, any day now

under the soil, you

under the soil, you
don’t even have to
dig deep
before you hit
something
shimmery –
in the middle of
america’s red,
white, and blue,
a mirage
of expertise

when there is no end

when there us no end
in sight, our minds make up a
mirage, a target,

a mission – between here abd
nowhere, the distance flickers

we appear to close

we appear to close
the gap between the things we
know and the things we

don’t know, year after year, but
it’s only from a distance

i’ve traveled one-

i’ve traveled one-
thousand-and-ninety-
six days to manage
this grief, hold the
longing steadfast.
when your absence
bends each moment
into an unshakeable
mirage, with every
sunrise hangs an
unspeakable thirst

the business of

the business of
living is a supple
management of
mirages – from sun
up till sun down
,
hope is the weight
in your boots,
lifting, replacing
