letters II

by Stuart Shilton

write a letter
to the imovable
inescapable
memory of what you've lost
write a letter
to the tombstones, the
only place the dead still
live, only in the memories
write a letter
saying what you didnt instead simple silence
to a friend
write a letter
to Saint Peter to
give your man a hand
a letter of recomendation
write a letter
to RSVP to the
final party
to meet and speak
to say what you couldnt
write a letter to your brother let him know its carved in stone write a letter for the good men lost and for those that choose to wander still write a letter from your heart to prove that its still there write a letter to your god asking why? what you didnt have the
strength
write a letter
