Visiting Ginsberg’s grave it began to rain
a refreshing drizzle that was walkable
until we made the truck below
by the Great Stupa
– now in my tent I think of Allen’s grave
(which has some ashes
more in Newark, New Jersey near his family)
– a new friend had asked
“Do you want to be alone with him?”
“He’s not there,” I said, but happy nonetheless
