Pretty Far Gone

taking communion this morning
       I thought
How Appropriate
Getting Down
on My Knees
For Some Free
Wine & Bread

I've misplaced
   my guilt
maybe I lost it
   in storage
or on the interstate
or maybe I gave it
to one of my exes
or flings
to remember me
by
 
   this will serve
       as a
      postcard
Thinking of You
Wishing You Were Here
      to see me
burned out
but wading
in the 
creative flow
   the snow has melted
       and I'm warm
            dreaming
            of you
thinking maybe
The Impossible is only
a Hello away...
