Badu

What to do about Badu

Smiling, sweetly good
So good!
And tall and handsome

Badu grown into Lacey,
Radiantly smiling

Gone?

Can't be gone
Must be here somewhere.

In the hammering of grief
I am trying to cry you back
Your sweet joyful presence
- Back where it belongs

I Love you man
Don't go away

The poem that is Lacey
Enters and entwines my heart
Murmuring, even as I sleep
