I VAGUELY REMEMBERI vaguely remember when you weren't
sick.
I try to wrack my mind to recall who
you once was.

If My Tears Were a RiverIf my tears were a river
Would they flow to the sun?
Would they laugh, would they chatter
And before its course run,
Would they open to an ocean
Holding childhood dreams?
And in the tides of that ocean
Could...

She liked her nurses, they were slim and fit.

NO DON'T GO
is it selfish
to want
to hang on to you
to keep you
bound to this realm
and not set you free

to hold on
with all my might
to the life of you
as you fade away
little by little
with every...

IllnessThe body filled with inflammation..
A lightening bolt of pain
Shooting rapidly..
Body immersed in states of agony..
The mind dwells in slow motion..

It tries desperately to overcome rapid shots..
Throbbing..
Pain delivered throughout..
The mind wrestles...

I DREAD THE DAY
time will come
when you’ll be gone
it will seem for you a wink

Blackout Poetry- DetachedI'm almost disappointed
when
the pot of tea is
off the stove.
I forgot
her.
She stands next to me,
unconvinced.
I step aside
and let her
weep and wail.
She's here
for a few more days
and I will
figure this out.
She was sick
for years.

To the beautiful lady dressed in red.

And in unison our feet will fly.
We’ll dance on the clouds...

returning home beneath the American...

Weekend MorningWeekend Morning
I’m awake, but do not move.
Diffused light blinks past the drapes, silently
Shadowing her graying hair.
I just watch Nelly breathe.
I want her to wake up, but don’t want to wake her.
So maybe just peering...

Jabb Her Vaccsee'Twas slightly scary in terms doctors know
did nurses nimble who would pass this way.
Prickly plied do glories go
so soon alas undismayed.
Long time in fact she thought
jabbed her vaccsees as she fought.
Needling here high 'n low
