George Jones Died Today, Erasure
(for my father, Richard Alan Miller)

I’ll love you
forget    time
years pass slowly

kept
half crazy now     then
still
Hoping                                       come back again

found
Dated
underlined in red

I went to see
but I didn’t see
He was     dressed to go
First                                           years

stopped

she came to see time
all wondered
running
over her

soon they’ll carry him away
