Remainder

Remainder

You ask me how
in the here and now
(written in the sand)
I fare in life and
so, at the risk of being gory,
I mention the short story
and its desertion
(this comes at some coercion)
of myself, thus leaving
me with my remainder, cleaving
only to versifying
and sighing if not crying.
