saying
it how it is
been
alone a long time so long i
can no longer remember how long.
so
it's a long long time.
longer
then a piece of string longer than
many soap operas longer than a
dandelion.
had
no evidence of self today the
medication must be working
feel
like I'm not really here all tied
up in emotional forget me knots
so
the medication must be working. a
kid sat just opposite me in a
wheel chair.
he
did not like sitting were he was
sitting so his mother moved him
over to the
bench
she and i were sitting on. his
legs were lifeless
he
must have been about seven or
eight. he was playing with a
silver object
it
might have been a whistle but i
was not sure.
maybe
he had been told that he
could blow it when things became
too much.
(plaese pick up your baby blue
passes on the way out which will
serve you well in the eternity
ahead).
