Stream of consciousness poem -- part 69



Chapter 69

November 29, 2011 – In the morning

It has been
A month
Since we brought
My brother
Into
Our home

It has been
A month
Of appointments
And
Driving

It has been
A month
 With two trips
To the Social Security Office
Two trips
To the Department of Motor Vehicles
Three trips
To the Mental Health Building
One trip
To the Unemployment Office
And one trip
To a VA Benefits
Office

I don’t feel
Any closer
To getting him help
Until
Today
