Memorial after Heinrich Heine

No mass will anyone sing, no Kaddish will anyone say — neither said, nor sung — by none — when I’m done.

But maybe one day . . ?

When the weather’s bright & gay . . out for a stroll in [M]arch — my Paulina — alongside [f]rench [K]ristin.

With garlands of evergreen, comes she . . to adorn my grave & sigh, “Oh, my poor guy,” . . wet melancholy in her eye.

(Alas, dwell I way too high, that even for my sweet, a stool I can’t supply.)

(Geez, her weary wobbling feet.)

(Sweetie, fatty, don’t go back to your house by foot at the curb, grab a cab . . or a duck . . or a purse.)
