A countenance that is haunting your mind,
familiar and plain.
When he vanishes gratiutously into the night,
you both go insane.

A picture -- a cloud that is curdling again
above your laugh.
Raining down the same, taking over the place
when you walk the path.

A moment you was lucky to catch
of his distant life.
A glance the eyes bear stuck in them --
nothingness and drive.
