Comptine D`un Autre Ete Poem by RIC BASTASA

Comptine D`un Autre Ete



such is the story
of love, now that they
have gone old
all their children
having no time
having lives of their own
in distant places

how the pianist wife
suffered the mental illness
which he could not
watch for long

'she is not herself anymore'
he thought

and he locked the doors
closed all the windows

put a pillow on her face
until she died.
