passage: a poem for my grandma boatright
or as my cousins call her,
'granma boaty
- by Bil Johnson

got the phone call i'd been expecting
left work early
cried in the parking lot

drove home quiet
drove home numb
tossed keys on the table

drank of a glass of red wine
fell asleep on couch
no dreams came to me
