Discourses

The day that my grandfather died
I sat on the loose-shingled roof
Atop the beaten shed that stood
Behind his gray and gabled house

And watched the sun burn hot and hard
Just over tree line past the park
Until the only substance left
Was vapor purple, orange, and gold

Escorted off by silent hosts

My first extended chat with ghosts
