MOM

       an old joke

an M tattooed on each buttcheek  knees pulled tight to ones chestrolling sidewise  WOW MOM WOW MOM WOW MOM

she didnt find that funny

Aw comon Maw its funny its a joke

                                     Get down off tha high horse of yours

hers was mighty high

                       JUDGMENTAL

her middle name

she madeup her mind  no changing it

                                        not for all the tea in China  and then some  but isnt there always a but

his MOM secretly he spelled M O o r i n g M 

   when she died

his moorings lessened

                        he became more unmoored than usual

it was then he realised how grateful he was to her  realised  she held his reins loosely

when he became extreme

that was his middle name

he pushed hard on barriers

she managed to back him down

lessen his contemptderision

                              helped him relax unknot his fists

throughout her life she asked him in conversation over the telephone in letters  Do you remember Second Grade?

   Yes

Then. Practise what you learned what she taught him.

                                                        defuse situations with laughter

My only thing fear he explained to her  is tha once I start laughing I might not be able to stop  Ill rave

Oh don’t worry that, you’ll stop; even if it is only because you’ve fainted from a lack of oxygen.

Gee thanks Maw

Yabetcha.
