Duffy

Duffy sent me woodpecker sawdust

                                         Reminds me Tinkerbell her Pixie dust  without it shes unable to fly  I hope Duffy wasnt too generousdidnt diminish her abilities for whatever woodpecker sawdust provides

I’ve . . I’ve never heard of . that.

Me neither It came inside a coffinshaped glass jewelry box   A bit unsettling A small note inside it facing up on bonecoloured parchment said it was woodpecker sawdust

What is that?

  Logically bits an dust of wood excavated by a woodpecker either from it searching for insects or to storepack seeds or nuts in

         It seems me   You have an idea

 

No.

     What are you going to do with it?And whos Duffy?

Duffys my mother She wants to be known as Duffy from here on

he cringed  uncomfortably

                             Your mother?

Yes  Don make a face

Your mother’s dead.

  Yes

Are you okay?

Yes

       I was moved  The notes in her handwriting  I believe it was written with the fountain pen I gave her years ago  Her cursive is beautiful and the flourish of ink not ballpoint is quite exquisite  An unmistakable

he shifted his feet  Are you sure you’re okay?

I can show you the jewelry box the dust the note Yare familiar with her handwriting you can see for yourself

he slowly shook his head side to side  mulling   indecisive

                                                                    Duffy 

Yes  Thank you

No. I’d rather not.

                    I’ll take your word.

Should you change your mind Id be happy to show you

                                                              The glass coffinshaped boxI believe  acknowledges her acceptance of her death  You remember she didnt want to be buriedcoudnt breathe didnt want to be cremated itd burn 

In a coffin in a crypt was an excellent solution to her dilemma

                                                                 An maybe afterall  she gave me all her dust  She doesnt need to flymaybe  I don know  Ill have to give it more thought but off the top of my head  that’s my consideration   Ill give it more thought

You are sure you’re okay?

Yes thank you I am   Im surprised but okay an grateful  This confirmsfalls in line with my considered belief that theres an unseen veil to say biologically a lenticel aerenchyma auriferous parenchyma  stomata  that allows exchangesinteractions between  us 

                                       It separates life an death  a febrilefor lack of a better word or word I havent right now  A febrile passage

I don’t know what to say.
