NOTES FROM DIJON
NOTES FROM DIJON
My little bird,
You will not hear from me for a while,
For there is someone else�s pain to deal with
It is large and crippling and deserves my attention.
I attend to it � visits, late night calls-
An anxiety and a strain when I�m not attending to it.
So I feel a bit sapped and drained �
A cut flower going toward oblivion-
An iris fading to brown then invisible.
I am sorry for this and the timing
I don�t want to hurt and be hurt.
Know that I think of you often
And see your eyes � expecting miracles
That I cannot perform. Fuckingly,
Smith
