Request!! Maybe two years back someone posted an AMAZING poem about a son whose elderly father is mugged and the poem is addressing the mugger....speaking of how he should be happy he's not meeting the father in his fierce youth but now he must contend with the son. The last stanza was a jaw-dropper. I so so so hope someone remembers what that

I think it's "Prayer for the Man who Mugged My Father, 72"

THANK YOU!!!!! *mind finally rests*

I appreciate that and am thrilled you knew it.

Are any of your poems online?

You're right about that last line; it's visceral.

Thanks for asking! They are - mostly speculative. Here's a link:http://samanthahenderson.com/poetry/
