Word-less

Haven't been able to write in awhile; it's been a very difficult time.

Now, imagining this as an in-person or on-the-phone conversation, rather than a monologue, I can imagine the friendly sympathetic, "oh, what happened, is everything all right?"

And I may well choose the easy answer,,"fine, thanks"--easy perhaps, but not quite the full story.

So, what is wrong?  Both of my children are gone. I think that's enough,.
