9942. OH MOTHER

OH MOTHER
I have not sat for a medallion profile
like this for years; since I was maybe 
two or less, and you had my first shoes
bronzed  -  you called it. More like just
dipped in shit that hardened, I said. In
baby-talk anyway. Then, with that
foolish young photo of me, the whole 
thing had to sit for years on my dresser 
top. I almost had to look at it every day
of my almost life. Glad that's over. 
Eventually, everyone does get free
to just go do what they want.
