"A Gust Of Wind"

written after hearing bad news by jake kilroy.

A gust of wind, a paltry balloon,
bellowing down the hospital waterfall,
mesmorized by a bowl full of medicine snacks,
all the while cheering on the sunlight,
no eating, no drinking, no praying,
there's nothing you need that you won't find in family,
now that you know how far a god will go,
just to break his own bones as a human being.
