It seemed so solid
Till I gained the perspective
That I’m living on the Outer Edge of a bubble,
Looking in.
Ah! Look! There you are. And there is Auntie Em.
Tender heartache, too, for my ex-husband, Tim.
There go the living and the dead,
all the enemies and all the friends
some who are still fighting and others who
smile and say, “You win.”
