She was a twinkle in Grandfather\u2019s eye
\nmy lovely, precious mother<\/p>\n
Objectified. An icon. Not human.<\/p>\n
But she was my mother!<\/p>\n
She would be 96 this year
\nwere it not for erections
\nand selections of commodities
\nlike me.<\/p>\n
She was my MOTHER!<\/p>\n
My mother, my mother, my mother
\nthe one who brought me
\nfrom the timeless layer
\nof infinity.<\/p>\n
Let me ask, then…<\/p>\n
Let me ask of you
\nwho on high took her
\ntook her, took her, took her
\nfor having me.<\/p>\n
Let me ask, then…<\/p>\n
Do your children need
\ntheir mother, the gun bearer?
\nDo they want her?
\nTheir mother, mother fucker?<\/p>\n
Let me ask, again…<\/p>\n
Do their babies need her children?
\nGrandchildren yours, who
\nabove it all should be below?
\nBelow, below, below.<\/p>\n
Bored rubes!<\/p>\n
You\u2019ve nothing better to do
\nthan maim and command.
\nNot a relevant thought
\nto rub between brain cells.<\/p>\n
Ah, to steal and do nothing!<\/p>\n
Put on a show to lie
\nabout my mother.<\/p>\n
Fuck you.<\/p>\n
And fuck the hags you rode in on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
