all day,one long tethered motion:sweep, stir, sow.this is her kingdom,an inheritance that you can’t deny.oh mama no, oh mama no.oh mama no I will.come down, child,from your gates and connections.sleep, slur, slow.this is where you come from,the anchor that you can’t leave behind.oh mama no, oh mama no.oh mama no I will.so mama learns your tribal lingo,tolerates the time between calls,catalogues the years and makes a note of all your endless goings-on.when her sentences start to repeat,and her voice in the night is reaching –oh mama please don’t leave me.and then one day,in the boxes upon boxes:Letras de cancionesgrieve, give, go.maybe you can learn how –if you never feel the dark, never see the light.oh mama no, oh mama no.oh mama no I will.oh mama no, oh mama no.oh mama no I will.oh mama know, oh mama know –mama you know I will.
