Who Is Left To Bury the Dead
today,
another nightmare
the youngest son
passed on,
last week
the oldest son,
dad
the week before
maternal one
still hangs on
to bury the dead
and care for her son's
four young children
but for how long
in good spirit
she with fever and pain
5/7/2021
A monster silently walks (COVID-19) claims three more lives.
True story , it happened these last three weeks.. :'(
