bye gone bygones

no words not a one
three years I thought
you were dead, then
cryptic message
beyond the tomb
of facebook, dear
steve, just wanting
to know how it goes
with all good and well
intentions and wants, so
How Goes It ?

What is This ?
the grammar, the
sentence structure...
clearly drugged and vulnerable
uncharacteristic
of an english major
the armor cracked
like never before, the
impenetrable penetrable
this odd departure
the reincarnation
of Girlie Dearest
more curious to me

than a lizzie borden
greeting card, so I ponder
a response
a week goes by, maybe two
I'm drinking a lot
of knob creek....
I send this, Hello, I am
healthy in body, mind, and
spirit. Hope this message
finds you, in a good place too

and that was that
no counter offer, no words
to share, that's wonderful !
no acknowledgement of receipt
no brief but brilliant exchange
by the queen of the debate team
things were back as I have
become accustomed, non
existent, more days than not
a fading memory
disturbed
by a ferocious hiccup

a sudden beacon
from a distant void
new pulse in town

Like a good inner dialogue
It's a good thing
