Buried in Creases

The stony hands of death
will surely grip me before
the creases in my forehead
grip my receding hairline,
but when you pass
and I have already been buried
rest assured my tombstone will weep for you
and wrinkles from smiling
and wrinkles from laughing
and wrinkles from thinking
and wrinkles from worrying
and in every crease there is you.
