Ex Officio
You were sitting beside me in the law school corridor?young again, as vivid as your infamous blue eyes. Mark, I wanted to say, we?ve been divorced for ten years?but I knew you wouldn?t believe me. Go get us a beer, you said. Typical. And when I rose to do your bidding, I felt that my body was slim and supple. I waited as the light behind the counter flickered and buzzed to fluorescent life, revealing?you.
no more dead
than this new moon
the past
Nice!
I saw the light, it was you, your holiness, my beloved master now and forever
Excellent! Both the prose and the poem.
Poignant!
So true. Well done.
Yes, beautifully put, never ending …
I found this quite haunting. Well done.
