Absent friends

Absent friends
whose absence brings
a horror and a sorrow
to my heart
that I may never
encounter true again
all that being there
and taking part
such as happened when
we lived together
rolled together in
nights that felt
strangely holy
for all their unfaltering
pursuit of sin
and low-priced booze -
if I could spend my
days with any people
I would spend my days
with all of you.
