The season is changing, dropping the temperature drastically
The wind howls powerfully, making the air very crisp
Darkness comes in and overwhelms the inside and out
Insolent attitudes always appear
Causing distress throughout the entire room
When there are reclusive moments depression and anxiety sink in
Feelings of isolation emerge when it's lonely
The colors have vanished away
Everything seems to be in black and white
The light inside appears insignificant
Hopes of one day these thoughts will transform
Knowing these struggles are for a reason
The world will be alright eventually

Reaching Out
I promise her. I'd do anything for her. She's my mom. Even as Lanie and Deanna are flying home, Mom is scrappy fighting dying. She lays too still in that too-big bed with all the toasty white hospital blankets, in the south tower, at the broad end of a long slow-turning corner that delivers me again to her private room with the view she can't see through, with the beeping that tells us nothing new, and all these ice chips she can't swallow, and a flood of well-intentioned nurses who cannot do a damned thing all the same.
