Knocked
out
sickly,
light, facile
duties, as pride swelled.
Praise me, Mother, from your stark urn.

      The poem isn’t.

      It is good to knock out the chores, right? There is an unfair dig at how my mom used to deal with the choirs – Perhaps more, an unfair dig at how much I allowed that to mess me up. Thanks for your comment.
