Written by Karisshma Kaur
Your tunes
Eclipse us
Escape us
Haunt us
Dog us
Your lithe form
Graces pavements
And litters subways
Your ditties of
Sagacious and salacious
Fables of a generation
Long faded into dust
Etched into presence
Your empyrean lilts carry off
As the day passes
Into night
Strained yet
Unmistakably there
Your coarse fingers
Strum and strum and strum
As you
Eclipse us
Escape us
