S. A. Griffin

Upon Reading Raymond Carver's Proposal


shit, I'm crying


just me &

the words


got me


guess I've just reached that

place in life

where I am alive

all the time

& I can see that there will be

acceptance &

a perfect end

that will have

nothing to do

with anything

I could possibly


imagine


there's just not much

to do but

wait


the cards will always

be there

bet on the

come


longshot victory


we collect our winnings

& agree that together

we were

damned lucky

my love


knowing full well

we could never

break the

house
