burying the past
everything is for sale
for pennies on the dollar
everything that is
except for my deathbed
not sleeping much anymore
thus busy listing things
on various outlets
letting go of the past
two or three items at a time
there is no endgame in sight
simply an exercise
to bury the past
hoping to rise again
in some old familiar form
september two thousand twenty-three
