No More Talk of Michelangelo
Noting your self abdication
Mental fornication
Demanding untoward situation
I dreamt your demise.
No surprise in the satisfaction
Of my dream reaction,
As you tumble down black cliff.
Stiff, wood in effigy
Glee is my refrain
You do not remain
Salient; whole.
Soul black, shattering
At battering by sea.
I see arms, leg, finger,
No linger of your image
Fractions-equations of the self
Your head on shelf of rock.
Mesmerized I do not balk
Staring at your eye stones
Pebbled over living zones.
All those vast unknowns
Bleached, beached bones.
I turn into the wind and go.
There is no more talk of Michelangelo.
