GOODNIGHT, LEXI-BEAR

 

And so, the day comes, when yet another friend goes home.

When all sins are forgiven

When they glow like a saint with a wonky halo.

 

When we choose to forget the multitudinous mornings

That we picked up trash and uttered curses

Stepping on coffee grounds and squishy somethings

After another night’s food-foraging.

.

Where we wish we could, just one last time,

Be mugged for half a sandwich.

 

Dammit… we’d even MAKE the sandwich!

 

You have been loved…
