Poetry by Jake Webster - Love You More (for my mother) - (Sculpture Love you More /spruce wood painted, nails)
Titties sag your ass got wrinkles
Back hunched over hair white as snow
Walking kind of slow - thoughts incoherent
Let me tell you everything I know
I don’t know anything
What are you talking about?
I don’t know
What did you have for breakfast?
I don’t know
What did you have for lunch?
I don’t know
What did you have for supper?
I don’t know
Want something to eat - No
Want something to drink - No
Want the TV on - No
You mean to tell me it’s time to take my medicine again
God, it seems to me I just took those pills five minutes ago
Short-term memory shot all to hell
Hmm…. I remember when I was the cat's meow
Titties stood tall
Back straight as an arrow nice tight ass
Coarse black hair down to my shoulders
I tell you boy
“Weren’t any flies on me”
Could have had any man that I wanted
Choose your no-good ass daddy
I’m not sorry cause I birthed you
You didn’t turn out too bad
Long term memory still pretty damn good.
