Going

No word not 
so much as
a peep crickets 
and rusty hinges
beg for more 
attention bills to
pay do too
but you you
just disappear like 
the gift never 
received like that 
summer beach novel 
romance just like 
that you do
maybe to the 
bottom of an 
empty bottle or 
bag of weed
or something more 
nefarious like kidnapping 
or witness protection 
but likely it’s 
just your angst
and your conviction 
that your madness 
is finally showing 
best to go
