this farewell

off a prompt over on FB, and in the echo of word that Joanna Russ has died....
--------------
This –
Nothing more than this-
A final flag,
The tankard’s dregs.
One slow lap around the course
Breath shuddering, legs a-tremble.
This corpse is full of birds
And
Falling, I let them take wing.
