Dear Aunt D
You let our family fall apart
Sliced by a razor into shreds
Bleeding the life from the undead
Embittered ties stretched further still
Leaving time for all things unhealed
Gatherings of old left to rot
Rank and poisoned by a youth
Whose ungracious nature you chose to side
Letters sent to stab yet more
Blaming a woman so incredibly kind
Brats raised by your hands
What do you have to say
to a sister who lies near her grave
Will you still stay away unscathed
Will you never repent of your undoing
Time’s pendulum swings ever lower
To sever the thin cord that binds
You have barely enough time
Before it all ends
