Delirium
gone so soon I see him ill still in that delirium
his talk like fine lace his discourse on Peak Oil and empire
making all imaginable as an old man’s hair
dark and light took him by appointment
and he answered saying that he was not his weaknesses
Erasure poem derived from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, Monday 26 October 1663.
