you became frightened and turned to us kids for companionship
do you remember our trip to disneyland how excited we were
we were a real family there werent we momma all of us
do you remember how to remember momma

do you remember bob getting drunk and you blamed me
do you remember putting bacon out to thaw and rebel ate all
when did we stop being a family momma when did we drift away
or would you rather not remember i wish i could forget
do you remember how to remember momma

momma dont say youve forgotten already let me dream for awhile
im no ready to be forgotten not just yet anyways
it is so hard momma not to be able to just talk to you
no more coffee clutches between just you and me
do you remember how to remember momma

momma are you in there you havent gone yet have you say no
if you cant answer me thats ok ill just talk for the both of us
you lay here smiling i wonder do you still understand me
well time has come to say goodbye i dont want you to go do you

A very sad and tragic poem you have my deepest sympathy. A friend of mine is suffering at this moment and it hurts to see what was once a fine intelligent man gradually going to pieces.

I want to say that this is your most powerful write yet but I can't be sure...
I'm going to go with this is your best so far.
I see that what your header for your poems say has changed. Instead of being an illness that everyone should be aware of you now call for it to be annihilated. Something I must agree with you about.
Good write maryetta.
