Where someone
Was sick or
Perhaps reading
As I drove past
At seventy
Not thinking.
This poem
Is for whoever
Had the light on.

"Men at forty
Learn to close softly
The doors to rooms they will not be
Coming back to."

Black and white photo of the book "New and Selected Poems" by Donald Justice, published by Alfred A. Knopf in 1995. The book is open to a poem called "The Telephone Number of the Muse." The handset of an old telephone lies on top of the book.
