If I could decide I would not eat pizza
again tonight, I mean I would, I will
but I wish I were eating only healthy
wonder foods prepared by a private chef
and I would not smoke drink or watch
television or obsess on sex or sports
video games or sweeping the garage.
I wish I had more self-control:
I decide – I do / my life – my rules
except then they invite me over and it
seems bad to say no – to friends
to ads, to spiritual mojo. I do
not wear a mask when I go out, I
should but it’s uncomfortable, and
how can I not hug my aunts and uncles
I may never see again?
---- Isai Morocho was a Junior at East High
in Madison, Wisconsin. He died
from the novel coronavirus.
His school district office released
a statement … heartbroken … tremendous
loss … impacts us all … take precautions
His principle said … caring friend …
ready smile … great sense of humor.
As if they filled in the name on a form
did anyone know Isai? His friends:
great smile … very funny … good student
good brother to his little sister … his writing
was outstanding.
That could be the real Isai. When he read
his essay he made the class cry. There, that’s
somebody special. His aunt warned the public
to wear a mask as she said Isai always did.
