QUEEN FRIEDS

she was there  as we breathed ourselves into life

father showed up later  these were 1950’s solo labours

we were there  as she breathed herself into death

 

meeting her face for the first time  after the wombfloat

meeting her face as it readies for return  to the wombtomb

her deathmask a strange combination of her  +not her

 

her beautiful bejewelled hands  curled in strange plasticity

hardening into crooked finger goodbye  but  (and i say this

carefully so as not to unhinge the whimpering among you)

 

there has NOT been a day since November 14th 2022  that

Queen Bee Frieds has not  buzzed bombdived +re-nectared me

fluttering there  wings a-buzz   now motherdust +lilacashes
