Shadow of a Ghost
I can see myself in a few years,
Drinking with a ghost,
I’ll take a magic marker and trace my outline on a mirror,
To that dark border I’ll raise my drink,
The best and the worst of me,
Crux and credibility,
Least or most?
Shadow or ghost?
I pray that there will be two outlines, rather than an outline and a ghost,
We can both drink to that.
