Image for the poem ~ Linda ~

~ Linda ~

just got word that my
ex-wife is dying, probably pretty soon...

my son, his wife, & his sister,(from a later union),
will be taking her from hospital
to hospice
on Monday

wee been parted 30yrs now.......

In May wee sat together & even danced at Eric's
wedding, having not had any contact for several years.

given the mental & physical torment she's suffered for the last 15yrs, I & everyone who knows her were rather amazed at how
bright & lucid she was during the festivities

ever since the first diagnosis of it, (6-7yrs ago?) she has steadfastly (a bit psychotically mostimes) denied being  
beset wit bloodyfckn cancer.

now,
she says she's 'ready to go'.......g'odd bless her......

canno help but weep

she seemed to have shared the best years of her life with me,
wayway back 'when wee were young'[& blissfully stupid]

what a sweet soul she is

damn'it indeed.....?What are these 'lives' wee Live?
