ALMOST MEMORABLE

a floating feeling
my inner snake checking in
with me sadly, peering
into my eyes and
then it disappears

I wish it well, God I’m
going to miss him
so much
he gave me, made
this almost memorable,
made it
almost worth living

but now floating out freely
with the current, along
this river
of darkness,
not a care in the Universe

all my stars going out
down to the last sprinkling
and then they disappear
