11/1

I worship the sun, not for a tan but

For the evening ritual that is my last, lasting

Tie with you.

In the cooling, it has been two falls since we

Enjoyed this season. I do not "kept" as well

As did you.

Much as I do not as well as you, as I did with you,

I keep slogging on, looking for equilibrium, looking for

A good life.
