Just now, I ate the last of our jam

Slathered on top of some really bad gluten free banana pancakes

The jam we made together from start to finish

you showed me where to pick the blackberries

How to step over the dog shit and push the spiderwebs to the side

Our fingers stained pink and purple, thorns in our palms

I squeezed all the lemon, you bathed the fruit in vinegar

We burned our fingers together

Our last project

The jam was tart and delicious

And I finished my last jar today.

About Me

An English diarist and naval administrator. I served as administrator of the Royal Navy and Member of Parliament. I had no maritime experience, but I rose to be the Chief Secretary to the Admiralty under both King Charles II and King James II through patronage, diligence, and my talent for administration.
