No answer

Dad says he visits you
at the cemetery
every day, except
Saturdays when the gates
are closed. (Has


grass begun to grow?
I don't ask.) We agree
you wouldn't care
about the words of kaddish
but it's what we know


to do. He says he's
mad at you for dying
asks again and again why
an incurable lung condition.
I have no answer.
