Just Six Feet

Every night, (I am so fortunate)
will be warm with your slight weight pressure
no matter how slick it is with ice outside
or how chilled my attitude may be towards you
I could be pulled through endless alleys of dark
and well-lit streets full of mixed opinions
about my selfish choice to deny your breath-
taking presence to those who ought to better serve you
Meanwhile pondering that I will soon be gone
placed in some bin or ditch like a cheap bottle
soon to be recycled and sorted into elements and
base nitrogen will be my greatest contribution
Perhaps you will fake an emotion of earnest sadness
to teach, those crushed by this, indirectly--
what a silly thing it is to mourn over
something, especially something that never had a face
when after a few months ROT will take any possibility
of a face forever, just six feet
from where you stand, my love
