less than zero

maybe fact is not wisdom

perhaps zero is like a magnet

something holding us

in fear and in reticence

of becoming less

keeping all of us

from becoming more

than just neurotic flesh

calmly rotting

waiting for death

Author's Note

I miss you

Indeed, you have very eloquently phrased, albeit in different words, Dylan's voice, He not busy being born is busy dying. You could do worse than being compared with Dylan.

That's pretty high praise Mark. Not even my narcissistic a*s would go that far. But I'll take it anyway... thank you sir.
