do you remember?

We were having a few
Moment of conversation
Mostly nice
Mostly meaningless
But nice none the same

I smiled as I told
Him a story about
Growing up while
He was busy working

And I seen it in his face
As I remembered and he
Searched for it

Then he started coughing
And I sat waiting for it
To stop.

Ran to the
Basket
That we filled
With garbage
He spit up some
Blood and hung
His head

Do you remember
Dad?
