I asked her, 'Mother why do you think you are going to die? '
She answered, 'There comes a time when you just know.'
Pleading with her, 'Don't give up mother, I'm not ready for you to go! '
In a soft voice she replied, 'I have the will to live, I'm only giving in.'

An imaginary place
Or state.....in which
Conditions of life
Are extremely bad
...
Attempting to pen a poem this night
Considering the meaning if any of life?
Starting in fact, from the beginning of time
So many prophets, scholars, and lines
...
One day I think, I shall get in the end
Just a little of the wisdom, of my Indian friends
Seems they were gazing, sun, moon, and stars
While I was running round', writing on napkins in bars
...
No one.....speaks to me
No one.....loves me
No one.....hates me
No one.....shuns me
...
Staring down
Coffee-stained carpet
Searching
A simple rainbow
...
Shifting his weight
Separated by the glass
Unbraiding his story
Detailing fine points
...
So intent working at school
Laughing and play
Yet we never see them
At the end of the day
...
Some days I'm a little feeble
Sometimes I'm a little evil
Slip in a snort and turn loose
Ten feet tall and bullet proof
...
