my mother
is sharp tongue
and unyielding justice.
she is lead pendulum
with her own rhythm
she is unconcerned tide
beating the sand
for daring obstruct her path
for daring to be constant
and faithful
and unafraid of her wrath
she is nuance and forgetfulness
smug prayers and good intentions
always obtuse.
always solid.
always mama.
