my air conditioning unit
and furnace
finally died
after
cranking out heat
and cold for over
five decades,
with hardly a cough,
the man from the repair company
took out
his camera,
put his hand on his heart
and took pictures.
i think there
was a tear in his eye,
that ran down
into his beard.
he looked at me and sighed
and said.
they don't make them
like they used to
brother. she's dead this time.
then he gave me a hug
as we both cried.
