Put to the Side (For: Robin Williams, Tribute)

Put to the Side
(For: Robin Williams, Tribute)

‘“I am finished—
Put by the side.
Song and singing now over
Like a rain storm that
Once hovered.
Now among the dark
Purple clover.
I am finished—
Put by the side.
Once I lived as a hungry
Man
Worked among the dew
Bushes;
But now, I’m finished.
I am like an old weary finch
For my throat has no
Words in it;
I have had my moment.
I have done!
Now put to the side.”’
