Greetings

The Sympathy section follows
Get Well,

as if we can't make that connection
ourselves - pretty sure

we all will. I say, leave a gap
in the greeting card aisle,

just let us have
that

much room in-between - a space
to keep breathing, to hope
or believe

there's a chance for Get Well,

without so much Sympathy
hard on its heels, what the hell
why not just

put Birthday

right next door to death?

It would be just about
as fitting,

I guess.
