The Inner room

Father:
passed the years
now,
properly not
                  can eat
                  can wear
                  can come and go to the bathroom
                  can walk road
                  can converse with someone
                  can drive,
                  the way want
                  couldn't even stand
                                                  even for a moment
with an unpleasant smell
families also stopped
staying in the room
guests were not allowed
to enter the room either

Last night,
a few days before the wedding,
the grandson stayed in
the grandpa room,
talked
blooming with laughter,
after hours
covered with a blanket
fell asleep by the side

Like thirty years ago.
