Remove for Improvement - Colin Newman

A reply was not expected

The question was not asked

And then without warning

Glasses were raised in a toast

The guest turned on his shower

After writing a suicide note

And then without warning

Glasses were raised in a toast

A simple act of kindness

Missing a sense of loss

And then without warning

Glasses were raised in a toast

Graced by his presence

A handsome pleasance

A self-conscious past

Some room for improvement
