Blinds

I am alone in this, today
You are alone in this
today, you slowly
pull down the blinds.

Is it dark?
It is as it is, you say
Age is gotten on you, I say

And Immortal Cells
divide on your temples

You were meant to live in
Northern England, you joke
You don't belong
to the desert sun, you know?
How come you ended up here, then?

Random, like so many other things.
like holding my fingers one evening
like meeting at a layover in Minneapolis.

Weren't we for good?



Don't you let life slip away from you.




N.B: (Nov 23) They took out his cancer. They took out the frown from his forehead, too. Upon surgical removal of his frown, he looks younger and happier.
