bones

will my bones simply melt away?
turn into flakes?
turn into cells?
simply vanish?

they tell me i need another chemo.
another chemo?
another radio?
another…?

each day i watch
papa grow older
mama grow thinner
footsteps of another session.

if only my bones would melt away
simply vanish
may be at the next chemo
may be at the next radio.


May those bones morph into steel.
