In Debt to David Graeber

 

Shortened days darkened

Prospects diminished

Street lights illuminated

Chances finished

Change succumbing

Crescendo drumming

My heart stinging

For one died bringing

David Graeber departed

Before the party started

Sustenance withholding

With glory unfolding

Sunset west persisting

Despite all our resisting

Rising morning east

He made his magnificence

When he sought it least
