lifting a burden

zdunno03's avatarLeonard Durso

coming home late
after a stop at The Belfast
to my own bottle of Irish
and thoughts of yesterday
today
hope for tomorrow
I toast the ghosts
hovering in corners
ice cubes bump shoulders
the overhead fan twirls
I take another book
from the shelf
there my friends from China
a tavern apart
and 1300 years
much to discuss
lifting a burden
from deep in the heart

    • Thanks, Jeff. I’m trying toı repost pieces that didn’t get much exposure before but still have resonance today while I also try to finish one of two books I’ve been working on for far too long.
