Plate

Over the plate of the same
Dinner was made yesterday
The river falls down the face
Again and probably in vain
Oh so gravity of mind
Will be company tonight
Will make the meaning of tonight

The stomach fills without thought
No one is where was left off
Too predictable for hope
A hundredth birth as a ghost
So shadow, spiral, and I
Will be company tonight
Will make the meaning of tonight

Is possible but is rare
Shake it off out of the hair
Color the face and the clothes
Watch the stories of heroes
A truer friend writes to me
Life is never not crazy
The ones who realize can see
And continue on I do
Until the mirage of you
I can only be reduced
Into a loosening screw
Or even only a worm
Who with even all its work
Is long out too far from the dirt

Over the what have I done
Over the what's it come to
Suppose it time to concede
To one last look at the moon
With shadow more me than me
Who's letting go is it I
Who makes the meaning of tonight
And continue on I do
Until the mirage of you
I can only be reduced
Into a loosening screw
But I will still wash the plate
And dare myself to be light
And make some meaning of tonight
