An Economy of Words

It is months before I realize I never sing anymore. And, despite pills prescribed, I rarely talk or smile. I have learned strange economy with words, reduced communication to simple requests and a few necessary phrases. �Thank you,� and �I love you� I shower upon my son, plus our ritual when day is done. Otherwise it�s, �please God please God please God please� and, �When will you let me come home?�

Dawn,
I do so appreciate your pen of honesty, Honesty when scribed to parchment expells the dark, and ushers in light, thank you for the light you cast upon my path this day.
Sincerely,
Rodney Evan Bohen
