FAM

Dedicated to the straight and narrow path-
Horrified by detours to the highway to hell -
Remove ethyl - inner GPS adjusted.

Attempted penance though ongoing compassion and charity -
Feeling forgiveness was never quite achieved -
Battling the bad within through peace negotiations without.

Pool of life blood purged on the kitchen floor -
Held gently by the Holy Mother -
The young fisher king assisting Her in sustaining earthly life.

Young sustaining the old -
Old restless spirit migrating to final serenity -
April - the cruelest month - finding love's infinity in the arms of the Holy Father.
