Into Something New
he prepares into something.
it is new, the way to throw possibly all things,
those old polo shirts
unused shoes, so many back packs,
lessen the load, and
possible empty the house
and then what you see are only floors
and walls and
then you start removing those walls
and floors and
for the last time you go down the
stairs and
with the use of an ax you break
each step
and then you say now you are ready
into something new
walking on the bridge on the river
and then
upon arriving at the other side
you burn everything
the river is the witness
sole witness
since no one is there anymore
