ONE
was introduced to death
by a Ms E Dickinson
late of Amherst, New England,
a word mistress of sorts
somewhat
impure in speech
not privy to her
standing however
I do remain clueless
in terms of her value
as per
stocks
and bonds
and with Lord, who does
all such measure
down to the last
grain
be it gold, salt
or sand
and after
breaking the ice, whose
depth almost glacial,
formally, with decorum
as only this miss
shapeshifter can
death and I spoke ghost,
conversed
in plain Indian
so many tongues and indeed
histories of
this place, all places
sweet in sad sublimity,
rolled into one
poems 2 die for
