It
Was
a
relief
She
Is not suffering now
Photo's and memories
Shoved in closet shelves
Pictures of us
And of dead relatives
How many forgotten
Graves?
To sea, with her remains
Even if it
Is
An extra charge?
To the coast
We'll dump her ourselves
Lots of dumping
To be done
Loads of stuffed toys
Old plates,
Refrigerator magnets
Which
I hate
My Mother looked so young
In these old photos
What year was that?
I ask ....
No one knows
Ya see it's just me
My family has gone
And I'm here cleaning
Up
