To: To my mother, who outlived everyone

Metta (Buddhist) March 31, 2026

You buried your husband, your sister, your son. You are eighty-nine and alone. I forgive every harsh word you spoke after the third funeral. Metta — may you be safe, may you be happy, may you be healthy, may you live with ease. I cannot fix the loneliness. I can phone on Tuesdays. I am phoning.
