mourning is
mourning is
lowering yourself
into obscurity
and, along the
way, wedging
markers into
the sharpest
memories
secure enough
to withhold the
weight of
acceptance
when you are
ready to pull
yourself out

This is an absolutely incredible picture of mourning. Unbelievably good!
thank you so much, Carl. i am glad that the words worked to paint the “picture.”
This is an excellent expression of what ‘mourning is’…perfect portrait.
thank you! determining the difference between the first week’s mourning and the first year’s mourning requires an excavation of sorts.
