The Last Stage Poem by RIC BASTASA

The Last Stage



a crooked line straightens itself
finally with a beeping sound, not once,
penetrating, traveling to an insistence,
it is turned off. A sob from a little girl
beside the bed. A punch on the wall
of a man's fist. A white blanket covering
a pair of eyes. Blankness.

a caravan of nomads, a camel a desert
a dark night, full moon, a distant call and then
sleep and silence.
