The Old Lady

Brandon S. Roy

The old lady lived in a rust colored house
no bigger than the coffin she would soon
be inhabiting. This frail woman creeps about
at night, staring at old photos and reliving
memories that she holds tighter than a newborn child.

She wears her age like old stretched fabric. Her sons
and daughters have long since passed. The seaweed grass has
overtaken their graves that she no longer cares for.

A crow calls and the old lady takes short breaths.
She knows death will knock soon. She no longer answers
the door at night.
