"So if it makes you happy then keep kneeling, Mama"

by Meghan Helmich

Mama, there's nothing going on here.
You've spent hours setting up the piecemeal dominoes,
and off with my toe-tapping shoes
knock the first one.
And there it goes.

We're all falling one way
or another,
so stop your doomsday procedures.
You have my love on the plate,
still pink in the center and pooling.

Always.
