I am

A button without a lapel
A jersey without a number
A ring without a finger
A mirror missing a reflection
A bicycle built for one
A quarter note searching for a score
A movie without a cast
Your favorite fruit without the pit
Your favorite ocean without the waves
An earthquake in Milwaukee
A captain without a boat
Port without starboard
Anchor without line
Mast without sail.


Forever means solitude.
Solitude in company.



I am alone.
