In the memory of...

The world is getting

smaller

smaller

smaller

As one by one

by one

by one

by one

Your relatives

your friends

your lovers

past

and present

They stop

They quit

They pass

They leave

They die

And you, reluctant and infrequent caller

One day discover they are simply gone

And all that’s left are electronic ghosts –

That lie

And fade away just like the waning crescent

Of a hazy moon

so soon

so soon

too soon
