Awaiting Biopsy Results

In the days before the results
of the biopsy arrive,
I can't help but think of things.
Mostly of questions
about my own mortality.
Or of how quickly,
or slowly,
my life can be taken away.
Or have I planned adequately for
the financial well being
of loved ones.
Or on and on and on.


In the days before the biopsy results,
I think.
I think
too much.
