Bone Marrow
Cameron Morse
Treatment eats tomorrow
out of my bones, Temodar at the dark
February dinner table. The truck
flakes with my shipment of sleep.
A blizzard erases the footprints
of my children. My eyes
agape are helpless now. Blindfold
of oblivion fall, please, fall.
Say please for the strawberry ice
cream. There is black gunk
in the cracked chicken bone. Gross.
Treatments like trick or treat.
A blind turn at the dead end of night
wake up one day this will all be over.
