Always is also the name of a movie starring Richard Dreyfuss, Holly Hunter, and John Goodman. Directed by Stephen Spielberg. It's a romantic adventure about a dare-devil firefighting pilot who dies and haunts his friends from beyond the grave because he has to learn what a schmuck he was in real life before Audrey Hepburn will take him to heaven. Real schmaltzy and mushy, but a great feel-good film. In my opinion it is one of the greatest movies of all time, but I'm a sucker for Holly Hunter.

warts on my fingers

and stains on my clothes

even after a manicure

and a visit to the tailor

 

there's gonna be

unfinished business

even when I go abruptly

bankrupt on the first

week of June

 

I'll be Majnun

I'll be Layla

I'll be back

I'll be gone

a coin jar

waiting for me at home

always half-empty
