see that bone
that bone that
dry bone
connected to
nothing
for too long
a bone
long ago pulled
from its wet nest
lies beside
the road
leading out of here
it has been drying
forever out there
that bone could tell
some stories I bet
if you are willing
to listen
imagine it is your bone
imagine you could put it back
it might offer wisdom
as to why
you gave it up
in the first place
that bone
that bone that
dry bone
like you
connected to
nothing for so long
