Brother Gone Poem by Dennis Ryan

Brother Gone



Tuesday night, May 17,2022

'rusu no ma ni aretaru kami no ochiba kana'
('the gods gone everything desolate among the dead leaves')
--Basho

I had a conversation tonight
with one brother about the other one,
the absent one, the missing one
gone missing for a very long time.
