Note to Myself

Concentrate, you god-damned ingrate!
Sure, she's gone, but think of all the splendid
Things which you still have. I will not make
A list for you, but that's something you ought
To try, and when you're finished, note the day:
Thanksgiving, and endorse its spirit.
One loss (rather small, in my view) shouldn't
Cast a frightful pall. The sun shines all around.
Lift up your head, and concentrate.
