vanishing act

by Richard Trotter

Gone to leave an empty space
can't do the things I did,
nor answer calls or chase,
debts round a spiral star
gone from this acrid place,
too sweet for me to dull.

Architects can build a mask
of the person I aspire
for them, a simple task
drain out poisons and gather,
tears in a golden flask
to restore a silent heart.
