A Poem inspired by Bernard's letter.  Does not address the horrors of those
who need or want jobs and can't get them, but friends.

Being unnecessary
except to you and me,
is actually
relaxing.
The people I find
that still care
about me are
the ones with
whom I'd rather
be.

I drove with an
acquaintance to a
dinner party recently,
quite a nice gal actually,
and she was unable to think
in a week and dead in a month
of something like Mad Cow Disease.
And I am still here, writing a poem
to you with my shaking hands.
There is hope!!
