when I first died, I stole a lock of your hair while you slept

Now I dip it in ink when the mood strikes

and the times you visit and kneel so pretty on the grass above me,

that’s not scratching you hear. It’s writing.

Having been taught by fools, how else could i have ended up but as I am? a man who panics at the sound of his own voice, a blusterer, afraid that within the five pointed maple leaf there lies another name he never knew; ready, always, to be found wrong.
