Abstract

This poem describes a client who is asked "Are you okay?" as the one year anniversary of her friend's suicide approaches. Sitting in the moment together, her glassy eyes, a falling tear, and silence, are followed by laughter after the smirk is renewed with the answer, "My mom doesn't think so."
