Listen to poem:
I
made
a mistake
with my mother
when the doctor told me she was dying
I should have brought her home to die with me
I live with that
weep at night
because
it
haunts
my soul
I could have
it was her wish
to be honest I was just so afraid . . .
then when I wanted to it was too late
if it happens
don't wait till
its too
late
her old cat w a i t e d
on her bed for days and weeks
t h e n he came to me
