Take Care My Children

   

Father

clings to window frame, in a panic

a man videotapes

his last rites

as he absolves all to the sky

and begs for forgiveness

almost a thousand feet above

leaping

escaping certain incineration

  to fly

like an angel

in his last moments

  as he spirals downward

with tears in his eyes

and his family in mind

yelling

  “ I Love You.”
