Gone
crash down
feel the wood of the floor
under the bed
feel the pillow and the blankets
where you'd been
birds are chirping outside
in perfect unison
to the echo of a car alarm
she said
it hadn't been as gray as this for years
pulled the blanket to her chin and frowned
looked out the window where i stood and stared in
i shivered once and leaned against the glass
men screamed below if i come down no one will be hurt
12 feet below the surface of the skin
she was watching the sky behind me turn gray
as the hair on my head
there's some money in a box on the desk
take it away
since i haven't any use for it
now that you've gone
there's a camera in a case by the bed
take out the film
since i have no one to photograph
now that you've gone
there's an alvarez guitar on a stand
tear off the strings
since i have nothing to sing about
now that you've gone
don't forget to get some pins and a match
and brand new cloth
since your voodoo doll is wearing out
now that you've gone
feel the wood of the floor
under the bed
feel the pillow and the blankets
where you'd been
birds are chirping outside
in perfect unison
to the echo of a car alarm
she said
