Same Dream, Different Night (for Katrina)
There you were
and here you are
and there you go
You told me a secret
("I'm leaving soon,"
you said to me
"so please don't tell a soul")
so the secret
i was keeping
stays with me
(but maybe you already know)
a change of seasons
(it was easy to believe)
hope springs eternal,
(or at least that's what we're told
--but history, myth and and a score of faerie tales tell us
that the fates and furies,
however, are always fond of a good joke)
in the meantime, farewell bright angel
maybe the wind will tell you my secret
and lead you back this way.
