A Poem a Day: a Series – Day 60

Day 60: “Fatherless Father’s Day”

---

What do you do on Father’s Day

if you’re not currently talking to your dad?

---

I started by telling my mom happy Father’s Day

She’s always been a wonderful mom and dad for me

---

I spent some quality time with my partner

And my cat

---

I read

A lot

---

I didn’t cry

Or scream

Or pout

---

I honestly feel numb

---

What’s under that numbness?

---

That’s for another day
