The clouds poured that day When my mother took me in the church I kneeled in front of a porcelain Mary Who glared down in righteousness So full of herself, i thought. She should be a figure of strength A warrior even, made by her virginal status But you are still porcelain, I snarled A slight push And to pieces you go. In the fear of the Divine I confessed my sins Her smile still cold and smirk like Laughing ay my earthly worries Dismissing my lonely sorrow. I looked up again in pain and anger Smothered by fear and angst To be met with my mother’s face Who stood in porcelain Looking down in righteousness.
