as if opening a crepe sail on a raft of linden downriver with no glacial cut swerve down soft like bourbon if I could ask the waters then to chop to shake an apology when you cry I feel a wet bank in me ring dry here I’ll wrap you in the piano shawl from the upright to your fists a spray of dandelion and comb my last compassion to grasp. Goodbye, friend. Willows dip to your lips dew from their leafed digits feast now on the cold blue soup of sky the iron from bankwater gilts your blood I’ll break a bottle on your gunwale and read broken poems from the shore as the dark river curls back white from the cheap timber as if letting what’s made to drift drift.
“‘I Could Let You Go’ was an opportunity to imagine a ritual for saying goodbye. I wanted this poem to become something more, something sturdy, like a vessel that could hold and carry away something heavy.” —Thomas Dooley
