To be Katie Lee

 


What was it like

to be so afraid of death

that every box needed a bag

within a bag

within a bag

bundled together within more bags


What was it like 

to be so afraid of death

that you gave

every last penny

for that burgundy town and country

just to have a home


What was it like

to be so afraid of death

that you just couldn’t live without

bibles and sabbaths

lysol wipes and vivas

diapers and sandwich bags


And what advice would you give your Son

now that your sight

is restored

and your mansion

secured

and you no longer fear death?
