Yesterday was too painful. 
I had a brain full  
of memories 
of you and Mom  
but now I'm stable. 
Went out and bought  
a plate full  
of Chinese food  
and imagined  
you sitting with me  
at the table.  

Happy Father's Day Dad!  
and also 
Happy Father's Day to my Grandfather, my Uncle Rocky, my Brother in Law Godwin Stephenson and all who have acted as an active male role model in my life.  

Thank you, 

These are The Last Days of Dark.
