HeartsBasement


And just when my

Waterproofing dried in comes

Another trickle where’d that

Come from following the

Winding wetness I see

An open window a

Photograph loosely taped to

The side of some

Other obscure memory slumping

To the humid concrete

Of my hearts basement

I admit I’m doomed

The water will win

He will always find

A way to remind

Me that he was

Once here still is

And always will be
