GHOST

Soft pedal 
on the piano—smearing

the unhurried arpeggios—
strange cloud formations 

half-
occluded—in the background

by alien tin 
can nine 
o'clock 
speakers; 

and so 
this must be—good Saturday 

morning again 
to your shadowy devotion 

which has finally
outlived—its own expectation.
