bari ammi isnotwearing her teeth.
she lisps, her mouth
puckers.
nursing the sour taste of
being old
bari ammi isnot
wearing her teeth
she sounds like an
old woman. i don’t
like this alien grandmother
her hair is too white, all
of a sudden, like
her diamonds on hands
loose and wrinkled
her eyes are too wide, tired
at the corners. bari
ammi isnot wearing her
teeth
and she is old,
suddenly.
Mina at 7:33 PM
