Okay, a little advance warning, this poem looks at the topic of suicide, but this poem deals with the way we cope when we hear of the sad loss of a family member and the way we sometimes think about the pointless deaths of those we love.

In this poem, we are taken from the moment when two brothers are clearing leaves as they fall from the garden to the father selling the car one in which the always present sibling has shot himself in. However, it is done with a twist.
