what would you do
if memories
were histories
you faced each day
as they passed away
what words would you say

no .s
no ?'s
no ! marks
no at's or .'s
no #'s
no %'s
no ( or )
just an end

a keyboard
a freeboard
waiting to try
to write
about livin' and die
wondering why

the comma's
the:, the ;, the ", the '
the history
<

death lies
behind each key
or was life written
behind
what you can't see?

that be history
