It’s all gone.
Never be back.
Furnace is cracked.
Nothing the day
can do.
Allow hell
to absorb me.
How does one
die
gracefully?

Hey, went through a few pieces…there’s something I like about your work. Often you write about sad places…but I really like the way you do it…it takes me there…it shows me there..and I leave different.

very succinct poem.
I feel anguished reading it.

There was anguish writing it, but writing can bring relief at times. Keeping chin up and doing my own kind of prayer, I’m working hard.

I know.
I’m really lucky to have you as a friend.
Truly blessed.
