Mom
Tammy M. Brown
Abruptly she erupted from the core.
Broken atoms ferociously
exploded into dust
and lingered for long moments,
before imploding back together
with a brutal pummel.
Within those moments
an incompleteness,
a piercing emptiness
so vast was born.
Falling to her knees, head thrown back,
she burst forth a primal keen
from a depth not known to even exist
within oneīs very own being.
This, when your fatherīs face
revealed to her your death.
