October 17, 2011 – Morning
Monday
It is Monday
Morning
And I have a list
Of things that could not
Be accomplished
Over the
Weekend
Monday
It is Monday
Morning
And I have a little boy
Who has been crying himself
To sleep
Every night
For the past
Four days
Monday
It is Monday
Morning
And my older sister
Needs to return
To her job
To facilitate the
Pay roll
Monday
It is Monday
Morning
And I drive
With my younger sister
To another hotel
A cheaper hotel
Where she will stay
Alone
Monday
It is Monday
Morning
And I give
My younger sister
My GPS and the list
And a hug
And an apology for
Leaving
Monday
It is Monday
Morning
And I give
My brother
A notebook
With contact information
And a hug
And an apology for
Leaving
Monday
It is Monday
Morning
And my older sister and I
Buy an iced coffee
At a café in the hospital
Pack up her car
And worry and pray
That we are right
To leave our brother and
Go home
