Things persist,
\nthey run, stop,
\ntake up space
\nbut where do they go
\nwhen they go away?
\nWhere are the footprints?
\nThe box of broken dishes?
\nThe sound of voices
\nthat lived in a house?<\/p>\n
Perhaps the answer
\nis the someone
\ncalling in the night
\nfor the dead and gone.
\nThey have not left
\nwhat is not there,
\nso what endures?
\nThe last atom of eternity
\nthat turns the light off
\nwhen it leaves the room,
\nwithout saying goodbye?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
