trapped with the grandkids
another day of screaming
play Iβll fly away

even the rats here
hobble along with canes
a house of old farts

life shared together
unaffordable health care
death shared together

hard times are over
she eats every speck of rice
she cannot forget
2460
only on mornings
of visiting the dentist
furiously I floss
2446
an old house settles
after a long summer day
stiffness of my bones

a graveyard salesman
sitting in my living room
petals dance outside

a truck towed her off
the family waved goodbye
her long service done
2419
she was devoted
she was self-sacrificing
eyes roll at amen

glimpses of you
in the bathroom mirror
my vanished father
2407r
rest home doors open
surge of hunger in the air
whoβs got visitors

moon made of green cheese
I tell the grandtoddler
he googles it
2391
peeling off stockings
from my elderly auntβs legs
flurry of snowflakes

shadows in the trees
even now climb, jump and yell
souls of childhood friends
2379r
love was space mountain
hurling into dark unknowns
now I ride teacups
