Freda☠️Sarah☠️Ape

in a feverdream 3 women on a deathbed whispering
entwined-eternity grandmothermotherdaughter spooning
poet their witness their seed a sacred duty
wouldn’t have missed it for anything (who will be with me?)
poet-daughter still kicking
everything
first deathbed at 5 yrs my lizard in hand 72 yr old bubba-Sarah
stroking eyes flailing more recently at 65 yrs presided over
mother’s Freda 98 an old bro in tow call me sister morphine
decimate horror
the breathing-vigil
curling fingers the dampness
the Reaper-ed peace

Freda enwombed in Sarah Ape enwombed in Freda
some birds a lost civilization +a trumpet entombed
in Ape a clarion call to arms let my people go

Ape: what would your mother think of me?
Freda: she’d get down on her knees and worship you
i’m still here girls

…she was herself…i have never seen anyone
who reminded me of her…how she stood…
what she said…but where has she gone?

now and again at night…or in the street…there she is
beautiful…emphatic…lighting our random lives…👑
(Virginia Woolf Moments of Being 1908)
Summer 2025 …some Russiandolls…
