In Seventeen Months…

When three of your kin have gone ahead
Taking with them depression or cancer
You begin to ponder
Who’d be next?
Would I be next?
Should I be next?
Then you say a prayer:
“Lord, let it be that I’d go painless,
Or better yet, let me go in my sleep.”
When you’d never really prayed before
As a non-believer!
