Valentine for Franz

When we finally track down

all our other obsessive selves

gathered for one last dinner

or coliseum together

where to start

with depression

after job loss he

donated one gently-worn

heart quilt square

which all our lives

lie hidden buried

open named under

Franz we can’t even imagine

a God the closest we

can get to is angel

or Elohim and that

rarely and pathetically

but maybe if we

stopped leaning

so heavily on them

they might be able

to hit on us

for a change.
