im not going to kill billy collins (jk lol)
after “Fishing on the Susquehanna in July” by Billy Collins
wake up, billy; we’re going fishing
years later i will sit
in the kitchen of
a friend’s house,
thinking of my last
expedition—the cold
air of April amidst
the warmth of your
skin as I push you
from the boat
you looked so lovely
struggling in the water
i wondered for a moment
if that image could be
carved into your head-
stone—captured perfectly
forever
