a civilized man
no matter how eloquent
and sociable
no matter how
engulfing his mind
is
no matter how thorough
his grasp of all the elements
of this universe
no matter how amazing
is his body and soul
and thoughts
and cares
somehow if he has to be
decent at all
must know about the
fact of an end.
a manner, of ending
a meeting, a manner of ending
a conversation, no matter how nice it is
some men are much better at it
when through when the mission is done
when everything is over
when all is said and done
knows how is it to end what he
has started
he takes his life and not waste it
in a meaningless nook
in the useless passage of the hours
where the bell tolls and no one listens
