Throw Yourself on Furniture
Your favourite
sausage gravy and biscuits
Every birthday I spent
finding Jimmy Dean filling
tried not to think
about your arteries
Now
after watching you
have a heart attack
rising dough
smells of antiseptic
fried fat
tastes of hospital mops
The oven timer
reminds me of your cries
when the painkillers wore off
clamped for an angiogram
screams of captivity
There are plans today
nieces nephews
sister and brothers-in-law
a beloved road trip
I hope will erase this meal
