Map a living thing
this then this then this
a child a puppy a woods
a growing bundle of thens
always one more quality
clues us to the open soul
betweens invisible and gathering

It is the between of us
It is the between of us
that tells us we are related
that is ever with us

Pieces of our own lives
We pay for the care we give our loved ones with pieces of our own lives.

The family responsibility question
The family responsibility question (shall the law force daughter and son to pay for their parents’ nursing home?) really points up the fact that the kind of care we get is a commercial transaction, and one of choices we make. People do take care of parents at home. Parents at home might die sooner, but do we know that? Where is the life and the living of it, and the recollection that it is a gift that we will some day need to give on.

Nursing homes: keeping your spouse out of poverty
We have some things that might help keep the spouse at home out of poverty, while giving the one in the nursing home the care the family wants, extending it as long as they choose. But notice there is a choice. There are many.
