Primariness

the house sparkles
food looks yum
her back aches
but who cares?

She sweeps the backyard
the cracker-ash strewn all over
reminds her
of a creative spark
she had with words and paints
but who cares?

Primariness matters
In creative choice
But who decides?

  1. I felt the yearning in these lines, Reena, which remind me of my mother:

    ‘the cracker-ash strewn all over
    reminds her
    of a creative spark
    she had with words and paints’.

    We care.
