Patchwork (Aids Day)
In the park,
a quilt of cloth,
a blanket of clouds
a memorial,
a darkness,
love and memories,
ominous and foreboding,
color and design,
shade and shadow,
covers the meadow,
shrouds the heart.
And the list goes on:
Alex, Michael,
Kevin, John . . .
Artist, actor,
Musician and poet . . .
Lovers, brothers,
sons and
friends . . .
names of people sewn
together.
No more Sketches,
Dramas,
Songs or odes…
And as the light
breaks through
for the sunset,
reality is painted
in the pastels of nature,
untitled, unsigned,
in silence,
a good-bye.
