The saddest joke

When one of your parents unintentionally buys a single size mattress for a dual size boxspring but it doesn’t really matter because the other parent isn’t there anymore.

I saw it in a dream. It woke me up to take this note.

The good life

Last scene of all,
That ends this strange eventful history,
Is second childishness and mere oblivion,
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.
William Shakespeare

Poetry

These figures moving in my rhyme,
Who are they? Death and Death’s dog, Time. – N. Scott Momaday
