Arms

Mama, you crazy
but crazy makes your arms so strong
they're enough for me
hold me up, when I weigh 106 pounds
slap me upside the head 
when I look at things I don't have to see 
your arms are always there
thru my smoke and my alterations
my stupid poems
deviations
forcing me to know
you love me
