Pause

Feb26

My father died last week.

I have been and will continue to write a cycle of poems about my family. 

However, please allow me a bit of time to pause and reflect.

Thanks so much for your support and understanding.

Euthanasia #2

May17

For  Min —

You didn’t go gently

I sanctified love 4 suffering

and peace 4 pain.

But U were not ready

2 give away UR last most vital life.

& I am not God

Grim Reaper

Death’s too familiar

He follows like stray cats

leaves nose smudges on windows

traces cracks on walls

howls @ my jokes

while I forget 2 cry
