stone twilight grey

dead or not dead
does it matter?
these are ghosts lost
to the mists of time
filling in the wake behind
i drank river water
tasting of whiskey
so very long ago

with autumn leaves
i skitter towards my
stone twilight grey

    Great slice of melancholic reflection here. And, in the end, does it matter?

      In the end, probably not. But we all carry our burdens.
