Adious Amigo

Adious Amigo
pang pang the heart goes down /
whistling a song without a sound /
entailing a sight .. so slight /
a blind man may miss & yet /
to the ship a horrible list.
edge of the earth, sliding by /
etching his print into the sky /
Invoking time’s ticket for the ride/
longing to retreat from all foolish pride.
too late, too late ... the stars will /
not break from the night /
eyes seeking inescapable flight /
my soul howling to the moon /
all lost ... too soon too soon.
