Generations

By: Angelica Brown
Generations 
​

She’s not the elder I would have chosen 
Easily slighted, uptight and bitter 
I was there at the last mass she ever performed 
Her tight lipped blessing over jesus’ body and blood 
Her stigmata was a slow crumpling 
Of wrists and ankles to cancer 
Reunited to the earth that birthed her 
She was mad when I couldn't make it to the beach with her 
She loved listening to the symphony 
She was so self serious 
She wanted her hands in everything 
I see myself in her more than I care to admit 
I pray my rosary for her and hope she finds peace 
And know that she guides me
