Gone Poem by Joan Xie

Gone

Rating: 5.0


I text-messaged him
come collect me

He did not come

I let the rain collect me
Into sluices
bone dissolved
flesh flushed

Such a joy
to listen my self gone
gone
running through thumb
smoothing into underground
each bone has its own lullaby
orchestra of the hour

He did not come
I am gone
