Her Current Call
"HER CURRENT CALL"
out of the fire
her mother is gone
her brother is gone
her sister is gone
her sex is gone
she's reached
adulthood.
she throws a tantrum
she loses her focus
and brother satisfies
her hunger for attention
as the tantrum recedes
adulthood gets further
away.
and now we see why
she's in need of first aide
for her burns.
