“Your enemies call it comeuppance
and relish the details
of a drug too fine, how long
you must have dangled there beside yourself.
In the middle distance of your
twenty-ninth year, night split open
like a fighter's bruised palm,
a purple ripeness.
Friends shook their heads.
With you it was always
the next attractive trouble,
as if an arranged marriage had been made
in a country of wing walkers, lion tamers,
choirboys leaping from bellpulls
into the high numb glitter, and you,
born with the breath of wild on your tongue
brash as gin.
True, it was charming for a while.
Your devil's balance, your debts.
Then no one was laughing.
Hypodermic needles and cash registers
emptied themselves in your presence.
Cars went head-on.
Sympathy, old motor, ran out
or we grew old, our tongues
wearing little grooves in our mouths
clucking disappointment.
Michael, what pulled you up
by upstart roots
and set you packing,
left the rest of us here, body-heavy
on the edge of our pews.
Over the reverend's lament
we could still hear laughter, your mustache
the angled black wings
of a perfect crow. Later
we taught ourselves the proper method for mourning
haphazard life: salt, tequila, lemon.
Drinking and drifting
in your honor we barely felt a thing.”

“The Eye of Karma by Stewart Stafford
Do we still rationalise things we do?
Karma's cold, clear eye sees through,
Soiled laundry aired for the public to see,
A looking glass raised to gross misdeeds.
No compunction, an inflaming sick note,
Deaf to the plea bargains began by rote,
Facing peccadilloes that seek redress,
Damaging overflow of avarice and hubris.
Poison sucked from self-flagellation wounds,
The stinging venom disgorged and plumed,
A penalty passed with the gavel in hand,
Purge those failings with goodwill planned.
