this is what we've done
to paradise instead of
honoring our time

mindfulness is hard
when reality is hard
sometimes it's just hard

It is bleak at times
We search our hearts for meaning
And we keep the faith

A speck of joy soars
It peeks out without warning
All of us worthy

I'm so sorry
I've been there and it's awful
They are so precious

Been there done that, too
It broke my heart in pieces
You'll remember her

It won't be the same
There is a big empty hole
Hot breath puffs no more.......I'm sorry Zero....

she's so alive and
still loves to eat but her limbs
won't cooperate

this makes it harder
to decide if we need to
end her misery

she takes a lot of
tramadol and sleeps too much
she's so drugged and bored

she can't really squat
but she's getting used to me
holding her to poo

don't know what to do
at least she's easy to clean
because she's hairless

I had a hound dog
Had a wrinkly old muzzle
And he got cancer

The light left his eyes
He sniffed and lifted his face
Love shone clear and bright

I knew it was time
I held him and loved him up
And then helped him go

His name was Bodie
The best dog I ever had
Buried him in the yard

my old dog lingers
in the yard sniffing the air
like it's her last chance

awareness of death
reminds us we are living
and should enjoy it
