“I Will Cause Breath To Enter Bones” Ezekiel



 

I’ve little memory

of mother hitting me

with painful ecstasy.

Numb in mind and body

I break glass

                     when she’s gone--

imagine breaking bones

moving us

                  to scream

                                  moan.

Sensing cold marrow

                                   frees

her to breeze

me to breathe.
