Sorry, Michael,
but the brain stays
outside the remains.
They need time
to see the chem trail
written by you
To maybe explain
what you took
but never why
That would take
an interview
you’ll never give.
Your life was always
outside your control
then and now.
Janice Keough has published in the RI Writer’s Circle 2008 Anthology. Last January, the Bay Area Poets Coalition awarded her 1st Honorable Mention for the 64-count poem, "Lemon Life". Her "Billing Queen" appeared in New Verse News in April. Her poem ‘A little encouragement’ is being published in the Providence Journal.
