he laid
in the hospital bed
that had been
brought to the house.
the sheet and blanket
draped his naked body,
hairless due to
the chemo.
some time he
was found sleeping,
and other times
entertaining:
wearing wigs,
trying on umiaks,
clutching rosaries;
loving his friends,
longing
not to loose them
in death;
frustrated that
he was still
here.
rest in peace,
new friend.
