He is 90 and he wants to die
He sees no point in being alive
Each day is pain to him
even when visiting
all he can talk about is himself
He is 79 and if he cannot own his life
He joins the Hemlock Society and wants his wishes
to be respected in terms of his leaving
If he cannot be conscious..
He is 78,with a stroke-
Nursing Home for 20 years
Each day another bad joke
as he shares them generously
Ends of days.Edge of night.The Big Sleep yawns
snaps another sleeping smiler into light
(her face serene as she departs this scene@83
(It is the ending makes the play)
And we withdraw from war to be at peace
Until kindness is restored=art,music,poesies...
