Matthew Borczon

Billy

In
the
years
since
you
took
your
own
life

on
angry
nights
I
still
stare
down
stars
and
wonder
if
angels
feet
run
fast

or
fly
in
the
opposite
direction
of
gunfire
and
heartbreak

of
divorce
and
all
the
suicide
children

who
thought
it
was
over
before
it
even
started.

Matthew Borczon is a writer from Erie Pa. He has published 11 books of poetry, the most recent Ghost Highway Blues is available through Alien Buddha Press.
