Mother
Love you 'cause I can come home
crying when the girls are mean.
You hug and listen.
When we bought that Simon and Garfunkel tape
I was the happiest I could be.
You don't make fun of the
braids in my hair,
and you smell my scented
nail polish.
But then Cecilia comes on
and we're busy dancing.
