One of Those Hideous Books Where the Mother Dies by Sonya Sones

This is NOT One of Those Hideous Books Where the Mother Dies

Instead it's the story
of what happens after
my world was torn apart.

The book of Ruby
on a plane bound for
Los Angeles,California.

Home of the rich
and the famous, but
more specifically

the father who's been on
the silver screen but
NOT in my life.

The story of how I must leave
my aunt, my bff Lizzi,
my boyfriend, my Boston

To live with the man
who divorced my mom
and left before I was born
