What They Told My Sister On OCTOBER 11, 1948

________________________________________________________________________________________________


TODAY IS YOUR SECOND BIRTHDAY
AND WE HAVE
A VERY SPECIAL 
GIFT FOR YOU
You're giving me a brother?
 
YES
 
I don't think 
that's a good idea
because
when he writes about this,
the three of us will be
more than a 
century-and-a-half
beyond
life-on-earth

And he will idolize me
and everything
I could not do
while alive

He will think about
the three of us
more than he thinks about
any of the three gazillion
living breathing people
on earth

CAN YOU BLAME HIM?

No
but it will keep him 
askew of current events
and hazards
and catastrophes

ISN'T THAT GOOD?

Yes
but don't tell it to

Happiness ain't nothing
but 
tragedy
