Last Time We Saw Him

this time was different
seeing him
he was sad,
quiet

he hadn't seen
his country in
such a disaster

all the drugs
that's he's never
used
were causing war

and now his daughter
was in the middle
of a divorce

he was different
that last time we saw
him

he didn't dance
make jokes
or tickle
his granddaughter

i don't even
remember
seeing him smile
