For Gill
I wanted to be special.
Famous.
Extraordinary.
In that, might be I’ve failed.
But.
I am important.
A piece of the puzzle.
Essential.
If only because
things
would be somewhat other
sans moi.
An alteration
in the fabric of life
I am I am.
And there are those
who’d notice
me not-there.
The landlord,
whose bank account
would dip.
Hungry cats, hens, fish;
Facebook friends
feeling pangs.
My Kinder would
waver
in their steady course.
For every ant
builds up the hill; and even an ocean
is made up of drops.

I think this speaks to a theme we all care about, there’s a universality to this feeling. And of course we all feel your absence. You make the world a more beautiful place.
