nothing concluded 160

the tenth year
of the five liners
thoughts stuck
between other
random notes

remember those days
just after turning twenty-one
trying to understand
what some of it meant
ten years later now

my own cup of coffee
in the house my grand father
built and died in
nothing concluded
continuing the pensive

behavior in the basement
just as hands on
just not as useful
ten years ago things were
different

though similar enough
that changes were made
both simple and subtle
ten years later
wishing the obvious

what I know now
knew it then
wish I knew something
self-absorbed
or just absorbed

into all the people and things
that are closest to me
the five liners of thought
how many pages before something
nothing concluded...
