Preparations for the Necessary

Preparations for the Necessary

(for my cousin and those of us who most certainly never saw this resolution coming)


no matter how necessary
no matter how dire the situation
no matter how long past the time
no matter how hard you worked to put it off
no matter how many thousands of miles you've driven
no matter how many times it is brought up

to silence

when the argument
with mom and dad
for giving up the family home
and going to an assisted care facility
gets heated

and you know it will

make sure
first
you have hidden the gun
