feeling like garbage

he wished now he had treated his mother better
she would not pick up the phone for him

and the books
we used to read,
and somehow,  his scent of pipe.

King arrives
Bawling
Squalling

Everyone is smiling

Brightly, you shine, at end of the line
More passion than most
Intensely you boast 
Embrace your design, in a world, unkind
