she mostly did the talking now and then
when I was witness to her rather be places
bringing her some shiny wrapper stuff
flavors were mostly unintentional she said

and a caravan of cubes she mentioned then
with little gray haired ladies in aprons
with dollar bills in the pockets so full
like the stripper girls little square purses

and we would gather at the 99 cent store
there were so many miracles still there
and so many things a body needs for needs
that the macy places never even heard of

and she wanted to know about me too she said
before I left her bedside this last time
if she could ask of me something really special
something she could take along on her journey

would I please become a son to her heavenly father
