'Satellite'


'Satellite'


"I don't want

anyone to touch me

Or come near me

Thank you very much!"

"I am perfectly able

To take care of myself!'

"I can build a cupboard...

Bake a pie...Paint

The ceiling...and

Perm my hair...

All in the same day!"

She fell asleep

and as I tucked an

Afghan around her..

One tear slipped through

To dot the eye

In Lonliness.
