Cold Cock's Whistle

...the clock chimed, but no one there
a buckeye in the lantern's light
burning through death's poncho  
in my grave unholy hole in the ground
listening to the cold cock's whistle
while waiting for my friend Cisco
eating my dirt with a wasteland spoon
with no life in dark chlorine
just worms and parasites  
burning through death's poncho.
