all the loose ends
she bought her son enough clothes
to keep him tied over for a while,
made sure everything was in its place;
she went over to her parent’s house
when she knew they would be out of
town for a few days, and only long
after she died did her parents come
home and find her in the garage. the son
missed a few days of school, and all
his teacher could think was that
his mother bought her son some extra
clothes; tied up all the loose ends.
