"Long After" Has Come and Gone Without Ceremony

johnkucera

 

“Long After” Has Come and Gone without Ceremony

Young and old—subterranean.
Most times 
When we sit under fire,
like a blanket, we miss
the garden, even pulling weeds, 
even those scratches. Our eyes like opaque lights,
lit among darkness, still shining.
