in my intake interview
my new hypnotist said
(maybe hypnosis
will help me sleep)
she said
tell me about your mother.
We only have an hour
I replied
and we both laughed
went on
to easier subjects :
childhood education
middle age work
anything is easier
than describing your mother
even in a poem.
Mothers, you can't live with them, but you can't live without them.
