holiday incarceration blues

i keep thinking of my brother who is behind bars at the
local jail (not in my area, but his). he's never been
incarcerated. he's spent his bday there, and now xmas.
it's by his own hand, but it doesn't make it hurt any less
for people who love him.

i used to say he was the perfect man; boy, was i wrong. i
never knew. blindsided is the word. i keep thinking he'll
die like my oldest brother mike. then i'll be alone on
this realm. i know mike can hear me wherever he is. lately
i've been dreaming about him. i'm not going to worry
myself like i did before. what's done is done. there's
nothing i can do. not everyone feels about family as i.
someone needs to get over this stuff. guess i'll get
started.
