The FAB&PP Poem of the Month for January 2021


death is not a poem
(apologies to John Lennon)

no tomorrow
[no yesterday]

no choices
no chores
no stores

no place

no memories
no rehearsals

no waking
     [to reality]

no solitaire
no use-by dates

no growing
no shrinking
no watering
no plans

no balances
no statements

no history
no biography
no plot
no finale

no pictures
no priorities
no perspective

no experiments
no results

no peeking

no peace

no pain
[no gain]
