Today Eye Got Up
@ 4:30 2 put the cats out
(Eye have successfully gotten rid
of their cat box)
Made My Decaf
and instead of dancing
went back to bed
2 have The Dream
of trying 2 get Eva out
of the nursing home
She was put in by Her Children
2 die and not 2 live —
Eye said 2 Her
“Don’t have a heart attack –“
as Eye hoisted Her up
and onto My Shoulder
I will never allow anyone ever again to pass in a nursing home. I will break them out – even if they have to climb out the window on knotted bedsheets in the dead of night, and provide them the last fling in life they deserve
Yay!!
