the incremental stages of grief


cleaning out old birthday cards i find her name;
the image is non-descript--ugly, even--
and the message is banal, or at least plain;
so i'd have no qualm about tossing it out--
but i know i'll never get a card from her again.

I mean, intentional, but also: it's about my late Grandmother, so very much the latter.
