Babs is dead.
She died of renal failure.
They stretched her out
in her outdoor house
as her friends and relatives
paraded past, and they
paid their last respects.
One of her daughters
lay down next to her.
With her head on her shoulder
she looked up at the sky,
the beautiful blue sky,
just like they used to do.
She nestled close and
stroked her momma’s belly.
Gorillas grieve too.
