Notes About The Poem

Image result for pictures of sigh

Sigh--

Why must I cry
Tears running down
Nothing in my eye

And I laugh 
And there's nothing funny
I put my dentures in my mouth

As I bite down on the bone
My gums bruised  cartilage
Sucking soup
I cry
Teary eye
I laugh I cry
Funny mouth 
Choking  now on that chicken bone
Sigh~
