I don't want to say that Death is my muse.
Just a hitchhiker
along for the ride
swap a story or two
part ways
I picked her up
on the way to San Diego
Last September
Now we journey
Back to Bonners Ferry
Backgammon
Ripping paper
Morgue
Somewhere on her GPS is
East Pueblo Street
Via Crostini
Walk Circle
I’d like her to be dropped off
For at least a little while,
Give room for a new passenger
Maybe Hope
Needs a ride
