I’m bending toward sleep
crickets sound like cracking backs
fall sway the weary

The brush of my breath
strums the broken-down guitar
that sits behind me

in the last wind from Brooklyn
yup, I’m outta here

in a candlelight vigil
for the flame itself

How dim the star is
reaching above tree branches
like a supplicant
