For Norg. Lord knows when the first iteration of this poem was written:
Seeking refuge in Barnes and Noble
I discover a silly brilliant little book
"Not Now. I'm Having a No Hair Day."
Cartoons, witticisms and making fun
When nothing felt the least bit funny
With Breast Cancer interrupting life.
I read that silly brilliant book aloud
Showing her every cartoon
While she drove to get radiated.
The book was awfully funny
Two hysterical lunatics were we
Until we swerved off the road splat
Bald head and de-lumped breasts
And I with all my shit jiggling
Landed intact? in a ditch by 95 South.
A friggin' miracle.
