Fathers Day

Your chest was cold and still My hand could not warm it Nor make it rise again. I said "I love you, Daddy" I was angry at God and you For no reason No reason for the death of my Psyche And its resurrection. No reason for the pain And its assuaging No reason for the separation And its resolution. No reason for my Soul's anguish And its final Salvation.
