Cast Away

cast away this
little poem
beyond the cold brook

cast away the
fairy tale
from a children’s book

toss away this
silly dream
from the dead of night

toss away the
lovely girl
from your bleary sight.

cast away this
ancient chant
from your memory.

cast away the
little poem
and let the past be.
