Her spindly arm worked
the meat grinder handle.
Pickles and mayo make for

I said I loved seeing you.
She said we never do
have a chance to say all
the things we'd like to say.
I said I love you.
She said we never do.
Meantime, I forgive you--
I guess. I forgive her, I know.
Inspired by Vic Chesnutt, front and center over at Real Toads today. And, of course, by my grandmother.
