Stream of consciousness poem -- part XII


October 15, 2011 – Later still

We leave
The hospital
We three sisters
And walk
Across the parking lot
To the nearest
Drug store

Inside
We pick up
Some items
For our brother
Some things to
Amuse him
And things
That he would need
In life

When the
Cashier sees us
Laughing
He thinks that
We have been
At the hospital
Because of a new life
And, in a way,
He’s right.
