orgami's Diaryland Diary

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ill

A beloved father arrives
with mate and sibling
entourage

vials and tubing
padding and pills

they've taken what they
can of ills
and left created from
the doctors hands
manmade internal
workings

His pale aura flickering
like summer heat lightening
like falling down a dark
valley

take him they escort
him down the stairs
and to the car
away to Emergency
his pain gripping him
etched deep on his still
young years

So close I am to this
one
my own parents
whos death drew near
I fled
speaking to them on
the phone
but never bother
coming home

to see them withered
down with pain
shrivelled with the
battle
the strong idols of
my youth

I wish him well
this family man
who did them all
fine
stood by them
through time

I hear them back now
the news awaits
