in boxes 



Keep all the little boxes
well within your heart
and, along with them
all the fears, like so many little deaths

Write a letter to someone
who might become a ghost
-who will become a ghost
fight that fear, you gotta fight that fear

but time passes,
washing away dreams
and loves
and leaving only dust and boredom
in return

Keep all the little boxes
hidden
well within your heart
