Jesse & Kate [09/4/2016] [A] Jesse was a Carpenter, a Finisher by trade and many things that Katie loved were things Jesse made. Little nick-knacks made from wood, the box she kept them in. Reminders of a life that's lost that will never be again. [A] Jesse spends his days now on computer solitaire, his beard and hair need tending, he doesn't care. He's closed the book that was his life not caring how it ends. With Katie gone he lost it all lover, wife, and friend. [B] [A] Jesse loved the bottle like his father before him. Jesse's dad is dead now, drinking did him in. There were times Kate warned him 'bout what he had at stake. But he denied and was right he'd share his father's fate. [B] It was raining, and was snowing the night that changed his life. Jesse had been drinking, but not his wife. He was the perfect drunk, didn't argue and let her drive. If he hadn't tried to turn the wheel she'd still be alive. [B] [A] Jesse spends his days now on computer solitaire, spends those days and nights alone stuck in his wheel chair. He's no longer drinking, he misses her his Kate. He's no longer drinking to bad it came too late. Copyright © 2016 by Douglas Murphy
