My Friend's Ghost

 

Work on Work

Play on Play

Right on Bottom

Best on Top

 

Versatile

Haunting

Riches  

Heart's desire         

 

is to belong           

He is formed like a mountain risen from the sea 

He is as inconsequential as addition       

                            subtraction

                            multiplication         

                            division   tables in school.

He is so little it is  

ridiculous.            

 

His heart extends toward me where I am away from him  

I cannot find him in his old haunts.       

They are gone.         

He is versatile enough to find new ones.

He has that charisma.
