Doctor's Visit

[DonSchaeffer]

When the doctor said,
"You didn't die, Donny.
There will be tomorrow."
I looked at her with glazed eyes.
"This place isn't so great
but it made good children."
The sun was shining.

The Spring was going to start.
I rubbed shoulders with fear
and the contact felt good.
Fear does not have
a cold body. He takes the heat
from the world, but
doesn't leave much.
