a new way to see
to receive...
a kiss
goodbye
in a bag
he left
so
silently
no thunder
no dragons
no murder
he simply
and clearly
lay down
on a soft bed
put a bag
over his head
and breathed in gas
for a moment
he breathed his last breath
it wasn't a roar
of drama
he just became very still
"he" was
no more
not a doing,
but an undoing
this "story"
i now lay aside
i step out of this costume,
this concocted image,
imagined terror
and noisiness
the volume goes
to nil
peace,
darling,
peace
who would i be
without this body?
i kiss it
goodbye,
thank it
for sharing its entire existence
with me
and watch
it lay still
re turn
to silence
is not hell
a kiss
in a bag
finally
received
