the bath
the bath water was warm when i got in
i still couldn’t see anything but i felt the nurse holding my arm too tight
i couldn’t talk but i knew
that this is the best it can be
god didn’t put me on a short leash
i did
when a man puts a gun in his mouth
the last thing he’s thinking about is being an invalid
i can’t remember how long it has been
but the water is cold now
