The Robin’s Lament
By Amy Gozelski
It was the spring that my husband was dying from cancer. His diagnosis was one of the
worst possible, and our peaceful lives, once filled with activities like playdates and
homework, had become a relentless chaos of doctor appointments, chemotherapy
treatments, and midnight trips to the ER. Our household had changed so quickly I
barely had time to process it, let alone prepare for all of the inevitabilities careening
toward us. How had we gone from suburban normalcy to all of…this…in what seemed
like one blurred instant?
I thought about all of this in a few, rare quiet moments alone in front of the kitchen sink. I
gratefully soaked in the calming warmth of the water and the satisfaction of a basin full
of simple problems. When I heard a commotion coming from the backyard, I gave a
grudging sigh and looked out the window. A female robin flew a frantic circuit from the
fence at the end of the garden to the roof of the shed and then back again, sweeping

low over a place in the grass before stopping to rest in the trees behind the fence every
few passes. As it flew, it gave a strange, panicked-sounding call—a highpitched,
uneasy sound that raised goosebumps along my arms and neck. I watched as the little
bird completed one more fluttering pass over the lawn and settled in the branches of a
spruce. Half-drying my hands on a towel, I stepped barefoot over a few scattered toys
and onto the cool patio steps. rigorous, logical thinking is essential for students who plan to pursue careers in fields that rely heavily on

Crossing the still-greening lawn, I came to the place that seemed to have upset the bird
and looked down. In the grass lay another robin, dead and nearly featherless. I thought
it was too big to be a hatchling, but if it was an adult, what had happened to its
feathers? Was it a nearly grown but ill fledgling? With a sick feeling, I wondered if it
could be the robin’s mate. I had a fleeting, guilty thought about the members of our
household, especially the cats and the dog, and wondered if any of them could have
been responsible, even though I was fairly certain they had all been indoors curled up
in front of a movie with the kids since breakfast.
Ignoring a surge of nausea, I knelt in the grass to look more closely. The fragile body
looked deformed and unnatural, its tiny bones in grotesque bas-relief underneath
nearnaked skin. Squeezing my eyes shut, I realized that it reminded me of a cancer
patient: a frail body ruined in equal parts by disease and cure.
The emerging spring life surrounding me seemed almost vulgar by comparison. Lewd,
red rhubarb buds poked up through wet dirt. Young weeds set the stage for their own
wanton Mardi Gras inside the borders of my neglected flower beds. Everything around
me was preparing for a season of growth and life and fecundity. The very air was damp
and heavy with it. But here, in the middle of it all…this little horror had been placed as a
cruel memorial to everything I was about to lose.
In the space of one breath, everything within me turned to confront the injustice of this
perverse tableau. And that one breath kindled a primal, guttural scream so full of fury
that it burned my throat and lungs and eyes. Holding onto the face of the Earth with
both fists clutching clumps of sod, I screamed out sorrow and rage and ancient despair
