well I was telling a story from 3 perspectives...
my mother
my dad
and me
my dad is dying in a nursing home 1/2 a block away from
my mother who is manic (BPD rapid cycler) and waiting for her new lover (she met him in the hospital the last time she was admitted)
miles away in Vermont, I am waking to my partner telling me that my dad is dying (something I have dreaded all my life, his death)we are all longing for someone else:
I am longing for my dad
dad is longing for my mother
my mother is longing for her new lover
all this is happening around my fathers death.thanks for asking and responding to my poem.
