With laughter comes deeper comprehension.
He tells me
“No more adventures.”
My beloved says
“How dare he”
“How dare he
Label your hospital stays
Adventures?
Your falls
Adventures?
Each one
Does indeed bear a note
Of tragedy.
Each one
Might have been
Prevented.
I see
Each one’s point.
I have to laugh.
With laughter
Comes deeper
Comprehension.
No more adventures
As if
I set out
Like Robin Hood
Every day.
Every walk around the block
Is an adventure.
I have to laugh.
With laughter
Comes deeper
Comprehension.
