It’s not the pain or

Dry Rot

1 February 2013 burgoynealexburgoynedeath, decay, dry rot, life, lonelinessLeave a comment

Days are sturdy, slow
Working hard to keep balanced.
Soon, my insides boil.

And surely they breathe the air
of their own decay; in/out.

Some things are drawn out:
death and likely other ends.
Trying to slow down.

My dog passed yesterday. He was thirteen years old. Its a weird thing to watch the life of a being begin and end. I’m feeling heavy on it and I’m not sure of what to say. He was my guy and now he’s gone and a part of the big, grand IT. Lots of love to and from.

Winter quarter was
lulling me into bored death.
Over. Start over.
