slice of life




dear son,

for a moment.

just this moment.

you are here with me.

on this corner,

in the downpour,

the cold and clammy downpour.

i see my breath for the first time this season,

and the bastard is glad.

this is my gift to you tonight,

revel in it as I have,

for this small slice of my life is now yours too. I'll see you soon.

—the bastard
