Notes

  • Dedication:

    • Your hair has grey in it now

      but your back as the sheet rucks down

      is coffee. I'm tea coloured I'd joke

      and didn't really know what got you

      to be you. I still don't. But I know

      my illness cost you and you've never

      presented the bill. Instead

      asleep, you offered a richness

      I don't think either of us

      ever could have imagined

      that day you entered my room

      and the whole world tilted our way.
