Good grief

mourning comes

with all the small doors that nobody might pass

a sad house am I

death should erupt not return us to nothing

is this the best way not knowing

Erasure poem derived from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, Sunday 10 November 1667.

Dave Bonta

Learn by heart: tap a gap

with all the small
that might pass
