CD : distillation 9


poetic distillation of
‘Do not go gentle into that good night’
by Dylan Thomas, 1914 - 1953
spirited?
full of sighs; last breath
words unspoken, harsh action;
yet graced with long life
into the dark night
perhaps with little regret -
she did die alone
though we visited
saw those last sparks fading fast -
longing for the end
