Crab Nebula



The long road...

The long road of it all
is an echo,a sound like an image
expanding, frames growing
one after one in ascending
or descending order,
of us a rising, falling
thought, an explosion
of emptiness soon forgotten
    *
As a kid I wondered
where do they go,
my father dead. The place
had a faded dustiness
despite the woods and all.
We all grew up.
I see our faces
in old school pictures.
Where are we now?
