my mom taught me

2025-03-22

my mom taught me to be a doer
not think not contemplate just do while it’s still fresh in your sights
don’t let it simmer and anchor itself down there
well then i got traumatized and became a beer
she said to say hi and bid farewell
i neither said hi nor farewell
WELL SORRY MOM LIFE HAS A WAY OF KNOCKING THE WIND OUT OF YOU
thank you for understanding
for your love in absence as i wasn’t attached
i am a doer of a home for myself now ma!
thank you for the lessons!

how do you want to read?

poems can unravel themselves as you read, line by line, at a considered pace — or just sit there, fully visible, like normal.

change this anytime — look for “reading: …” near the top of any poem.
