Grief is ......

a factoid I noticed,
it might as well have been
in footnote 32 of page 118,
in a book, long out of print.

it seemed only I
was destined to see,
notice it for you,
who would have loved

it.  So I file it away
in the cache that is
my heart.  Another
bit of information

I don't need, but
cannot lose.
