It Looks Like

The phone call didn't happen.
Not for want of wanting.

Got caught up in the usual
stuff of life and then: what,

it's already Monday?

If I did call, I would've
said, Hey,

did you hear this place
is 500 pounds and one

big voice lighter?
Solomon Burke died.

You have to love that.
A soul singer who was also

a mortician. Lifting us up
while lowering us

down. What else was
religion made for?
