last week’s obituary
why now do you speak
of the man who threw himself
off the bridge near your town
hitching yourself to the cosmic tail of his rippling
deliverance into the river
like you might be a fisherman or
God, maybe
don’t you know that
if you wait too long you never fall
asleep feeling full
