What I Had to Do

What if my happiness and ease

Requires my troublesome, addled friend's dis-ease

My friend with his undiagnosed mental disease

I know what he needs -

but he won't follow any leads -

won't plant any seeds

or get up to speed on

making this life a feast

you see, I need to turf him out

onto the street

to fend for himself

will he notice

if I give him notice?

check back next week
