BI'AUTOGRAPH(y)....lIKE all the telling (of) some
like the ballgame(base), that never happened.
like the simile that should've been metaphoric.
like the likelihood that i'll ever play third base again.
like nothing you've ever known.
like being on the job, learning to do no-thing.
like the daughter child who slipped into eternity last year.
like your sins so few and far between.
like our marriage, and another, and the common law that was "to Be"
ever-after.
like the Arts you supposedly art'ed as service to 'community'.
like the love of your flutes and saxes that disappeared with daughter.

like the times of belief, that brought on the stuff of delusion.
like the son, the Son, who tries to shine on his broke-heart dada.
like the intake of poison from which I've been granted various reprieves.
like the faces of gone departed. ( Spectres ever-so real, now that daughter

like the maternal (acid) wit, borne of deep suffering of her life as child.
like the maternal guilt at passing on the process of failing, attacked, infirm,
BrokenHeart

like the irrational Guilt that hangs on since Daughter's demise.
like "knowing" tis illusion, yet everyday the flames glow seriously, as the
flood of tears cannot snuff the flames
of that crematory end of her,
Too strangely true, yet not-at-all true, as the world awaits the"2nd Coming"
of some body, some thing,
some entity,
to bring a commodity
of lasting peace, to
all who think enemies
we
be
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSsssssssssssssssssssssss
