To Let

Could it really be
that the tale is wiser than both the teller and the listener

he thought, and he plunged deep into the rising tide

will there come a form, or meaning, or idea,
to reaffirm the facts that I call 'I'

like in 'To Let',
a timely understanding
that cemetries are what we really are

that interval between the legs of life and death,
marked as 'To let', and stranger to a change,
divides them to connect

so he thought, and he plunged deep into the rising tide

and every wave that passed well over his head,
was change

then every other wave that followed,
was unchange.

And carried him ashore, the cargo
and property of none.
