Dylan's Gone


Dying alone on foreign ground,
death grips his blessed hand


Never choosing time or place,
uncharted 
—the Angels plan


An oak to fall on alien soil,
all seeds to heaven thrown


His words cast free to light the dark,
that ‘Good Night’
—now his own


(Villanova Pennsylvania: January, 2017)
