| i hate it when my father
who used to never get sick
now gets those silent, stifling coughs
or
when my mother has to get those shots
on the bottom of her foot that makes her
limp a little
and i have to help support her to the car
and drive her home
and i hate it when my brother comes running to the car
to help me
carry in the heavy groceries
it's not that
i don't love them.
but it's that
they become too human.
i hate it when
my brother falls asleep
waiting for me to finish my work
and i hate it
when my mother cooks for me
or when
my father tucks me in at night
it's not that
i don't appreciate them
but it's that
i become too human..

| "After ending an office romance, a female friend of mine threw a bag
full of her former paramour's love letters, cards, and poems into an
outside dumpster. The following day he called and wanted to know
why she would throw out his letters. She was stunned. He
explained that a homeless person going through the garbage read the
correspondence and called the number found on a piece of
stationery. The homeless man was curious as to why two people who
seemed so in love could now be apart. 'I would have called you
sooner,' he told the former boyfriend, 'but this was the first quarter
I was given today.'"
