One more day

One more day to write a poem – 
Can I salvage some elusive thoughts 
That never made it to paper?
Like finally fundamentally understanding why Elvis was shocking? 
Or how it is hard to put flowers on only one side of a grave –
How some days the way the light hits the barns is profound
and I am moved to tears
but not for you.
