Charon

vacuum cleaner hose
on the exhaust pipe
tank full of petrol
vents shut tight

free at last, my love
death is my new bride
charon in the driver's seat
take me to her side

March 6

March 6.
This is the day, 45 years ago, that I Left for Fort Polk, Louisiana, and became a soldier in the US Army. After two months of Basic Training, I joined the 60th Army Band as a trombone player (02E 20.)
It is also the day, 12 years ago, that my wife left me in search of happiness. I truly hope she has found it.
March 6 is a day that does not slip by unnoticed.
