Amen....................................... Poem by RIC BASTASA

Amen.......................................



she told me but she must
have forgotten
that she is a happy mother
of grown-up kids who are
now professionals in their
own right
enjoying their time on a
vacation somewhere in England.

good news, she says,

the bad news however has arrived
about her sickness, but not
actually recently discovered
since she told me about that
two years ago, that she has
cancer and undergoing chemotherapy
which did not work well with her,
and so she is into alternative
medicine, or perhaps her last option...

it will cost her 150k and she needs
money from me to spare, that she
is going to borrow it anyway
and that she will pay, or i could
make it as a donation for her....


bad news, i did not have any.


days passed, she sent a message
that it is alright if i did not
cater to her request, since a rich
friend already gave her the amount
and she claims that God is Good all
The Time, and that some unexpected
friends indeed are more generous
than me....(must be awful for me)


good news, i affirm God's Goodness.



bad news, i think she is dramatic.


anyway i sent GIFs,
God is Good. Praise the Lord.
Amen, Amen, Amen,

Deal with IT, sOON you will be
Fine.
and i just hope that i am still
sincere with what is going
all around me and all the world's
profanity err, serenity.
