Eulogy

Five women
all it takes to change your life
Jeremiad song midnight
eulogies to the one that got away
--one thrown away
--one left in a parking lot
--one forgotten, then remembered
too late

Six found in happenstance
serendipitous positioning planets
our moon cycles fit subtitles
unecessary subtleties
forsaken for more direct route
i never was good with directions/maps
suggest destination endpoint
maybe
there is comfort in the ride wandering
past acceptable milestones.
