ELEGY FOR RICH RODRIGUEZ (for Brian Grieve)


the only thing worse than caring
too much about imaginary
priorities like football teams
and stock markets --

"much ado
about nothing"
rings true --

is caring too
little. magnficent
dust, each of us seems,
but caught by the sun,
just so, we sometimes glow
and hang there
in the air before
falling like dancing and ending
up somewhere
below.
