"leann" poems
She pulls out a box of CD's;
says name your poison.
Cobalt-60 will do.
Bare Naked Ladies will be
the band du jour.
I lie on the slab
in the radiation lab...
*yes i'm...lying in bed...
like brian wilson diiiid....*
I'm wearing my spandex jacket
(where's Donald Fagan
when you need him?).
As LeAnn wraps the
velcro-ed elastic band
around me to bind my arms,
I mention that I miss
the good old days
of canvas
and leather straps.
*i'm so sane
it's driving me crazy....*
Time stops
I'm motionless
engage mind wander
*it's so dangerous
you have to sign a waiver...*
embossed positive
and negative
on the massive metal arm
the pluses and minuses
of shooting a carcinogen
at a spot of death
to save my life
*if there's someone you can live without...
then do so....*

Close by her side he paused to stand, as he took the class ring off her hand.
All who were watching dared not to speak, as a lonely tear rolled down his cheek.
Family and friends broke out in tears, as he whispered "I Love You" into her ear.
All thru his mind the memories ran, the moments they shared walking hand and hand.
Now her hands were so terribly cold, he never again will have her to hold.
Looking back at that horrible ordeal, she wasn't as sober as she thought she'd feel.
They all said goodnight, and she went on her way, now such a tradegy they all pray.
As soon as the wind started to blow, they lowered her casket into the snow.
Too many people carry the pain, of a lost loved one who had nothing to gain.
Friends don't let friends drink and drive! Leann Lackey
