A Final Goodbye

“He looks so natural but did you see that smile?” I heard it again and again as I walked through the chapel “Did you see that smile? I never saw him with that smile.” He looked anything but natural, after all he was dead but they were right about his smile, to me it was the only natural thing about him as he lay in the coffin. It was the smile I had seen often; leaning on the rail at the pier his line in the water, quiet, looking out to sea…. and there was that smile, sitting on the porch on a hot summer evening sipping iced tea…..and there was that smile. Later, after I was grown, watching him sit at the bar, staring at his beer…. and there was that smile. I had often wondered at that smile. Where did it come from? What did it mean? Who was responsible? Was it something he brought home from the war? It was the subject of great fiction in my mind. Looking at him now, cold to this world, smiling that mischievous smile. I knew I would really rather not know. I straighten his tie and copied his smile as I said my final good bye.

Supernatural

Something supernatural. A pairing. Arbitrary and divine. Given by God. A test to test our standing. Evil infiltrates the weak and God's gift is destroyed. Does evil prevail.

An Evening Pipe

The night is dark because it is the night The cricket chirps because it is a cricket The dog routs around the yard because it is a dog The grass grows because it is grass The tree drops it's leaves because it is a tree The stars shine because they are stars I attempt smoke rings and agonize over existence Because I am a man
