So many questions<br />
and still<br />
a language barrier.<br />
It’s a fantasy<br />
th<strong>in</strong>k<strong>in</strong>g of him<br />
like this,<br />
I can’t have seen<br />
him old.<br />
Perhaps<br />
<strong>in</strong> my m<strong>in</strong>d<br />
he has<br />
aged with me<br />
though this too<br />
is a fruitless<br />
tra<strong>in</strong> of thought<br />
because one<br />
of <strong>the</strong> few facts<br />
I know<br />
is that he’s<br />
dust.<br />
We’ll just sit here<br />
for a moment<br />
his doppelgänger<br />
and I<br />
and stare<br />
at a middle<br />
distance<br />
populated<br />
this hot<br />
and sultry<br />
morn<strong>in</strong>g<br />
<strong>by</strong> <strong>the</strong> liv<strong>in</strong>g<br />
<strong>the</strong> imag<strong>in</strong>ed<br />
and <strong>the</strong> dead.<br />
