Alex Trebek died
I need gram to still be alive
I need to talk to her
to go back to the house where we used to live
with her sitting there on the couch
a cloud of lubriderm and cigarette smoke
where she'd watch wheel of fortune and jeopardy
where she took her last breath
and just suddenly shout
what the fuck, gram?!
but I'll probably settle for just rolling over
and going back to bed instead
you start to realize all your heroes
won't be around to see you make it
if you ever do
if ever
