301. THE NAME DELPHINA

THE NAME DELPHINA
Delphina was my mother's first name; she said
it was the name of some Greek Goddess of Doom.
I never believed her for an instant. She was just
trying to scare me, keep me in my place.
Later in life, I looked it up. Such a thing
never existed. Now, neither does she.
