Poem

She traces a  litter of  rising stars;
while exploring  a place blissful within--
or even feel  a desire to extend a timeline
where vicious crimson cells invade
those mounds of chalice breasts, uninvited.

And a once  vibrant energy grows frenetic ,
nearly withering from the changed biopsy of 
a frame now boney,    lightly skeletal 
from a hostile tumor raging within Reena’s veins.
Yet, she crawls uphill , this woman warrior
of a hiker… steadily focused on reaching
the mound’s crest,  undaunted  by lumped pain
as soft tears glitter upon those thinning cheeks.
Grappling with a second -stage notice, 
her limbs wobble in exhaustion, her fingers
cold  at the same time eager:  treading on, I
watch my friend dressed in bald crown,  facing
this combat between towers of hope and despondency.

My breath weeps inside. Reena smiles and blinks at me
like an advancing star.
