when mama left california--
when mama's leave with
their children, does a part
of him go with us,
I've spent a lot of time
looking for Leonard in
the kindred spirits of
other men,
men with bodies like the
damp forest, mulch and
peat moss,
what is a father and what is
a man, do they yell, do they
scream, should he have when
she left, but
I was born a ******* left a *******
asking for someone to convince me
that girls like me can be whole--that
they don't need any help because i've
never had it anyway.
when mama left california, she said so.
don't need no help, she whispered.
don't need no help, I mimick.
