Write a book about me
when I”m gone
and add commentary
to all my misadventures
if you like
but make a nicer ending
than reality will allow
Write me into an apple orchard
and a big old house
with a dog
wearing overalls
does that make you laugh?
you know what I mean
in a scene of Everyday Autumn
Harvesting
and walking home
along a dusty trail
humming quietly
knowing all the apples I”ve left behind
will be safe and happy
and Red Delicious
