Very early draft... edit, comment, suggest, please. Emotional piece for me dealing with my cousin's sudden diagnosis. Thinking of our laughter together all of our lives, and how I need it to continue. Free verse---no set form....on purpose.

[NOVEL COMING SOON!] Dot is a young boy with a very unique outlook on the world. Note: some people will find this hard to read, but please stick with it because it pays off in the end. [#1 Science Fiction - 10/01/12].

First draft of a free verse styled poem echoing the staccato style of seizures I endure too often. I have another draft that I like much better, and is finer crafted through more revisions but since it was submitted for possible publishing in an anthology I will not print it here. I'll let you know if the revised version made it into the book and how to read it there.
