Sunday afternoon
Window pane, air glides
Like slow humming planes
A life like the end of summer
A face like cut grass
Laid out in the sun to bake
Face down in a fishpond
Stones and bullets
in both of my hands
I was only dreaming
That things would ever be
Any different
It was only a dream of life
Of what it might have been
If I hadnt died that day
