stuck in my shoe
preventing me from walking
the piece of food
caught in my tonsils
preventing me from talking
the sand pooling my eyes
preventing me from seeing
the gale howling through my window at night
preventing me from sleeping
the collar attached to the leash around my throat
preventing me from moving
the pillowcase over my head
preventing me from breathing
all of this, mother –
preventing you from loving
