Fossick.
Dwelling by the bucket full.
hands, dirty with dusty grime.
thinking back to older times.
And here I am, the sad fool.

The boy looks for the moon
he finds the brights star
and finds the rock

into the cave

out through the hold
down the sairs
through the door
up the ladder
he finds his memory

Happy Birthday.
