Never Giving Caesar
A poem

We’re never getting old
Spent under purple flowers
Dyed hair and polished shoes
--------------------------------
We’re never giving Caesar his
And we’d be damned if we let another year
Go by without the sea, and digging holes
On the shore
--------------------------------
We’ve stopped dancing and the buildings fell
Tsunami of words and wildfires for ghosts
--------------------------------
We’re not getting old, we’ve told the old crone
--------------------------------
Tip tapping bones, spirit if new worlds
--------------------------------
Didn’t we also tell her to leave us alone
--------------------------------
Another day will come
Another green path
Don’t you leave me alone. I picked up a flyer
I made a chest a house and you nodded, so we must go.
