by Ross Vassilev
learned today
of the death
of Scott Wannberg
I’d read a few of his chaps
a few years back
that a thing that once
lived and breathed
is now dead
is not strange
that a thing that once
wrote poetry
is now dead:
now that is strange
of course
only the body is dead
not the rider
we’re all immortal
but death is still just the same.
Great lines... "only the body is dead/not the rider." Thanks, I needed that. And Scott Wanneberg was a true poet.
