Replying to a comment on:
The putrescent mother & her son. (Ghazal) by Don-Quixote
Dreaming in solitude, a child sighs, quietly listening
to the noon time melody of his mothers bitter yearning.
The sticky-slick California sun that rises during June
scorches and deep-fries his mothers' grim dimpled face.
She lurks in the shadows of her pallid 'n dank kitchen,
avoiding light; tears camouflaged by her foetid sweat.
She stares at her sons' chair, covered in summers dust;
her son avoids her spectre, as much as he possibly can.
Polarized they shall remain- opposing each other forever;
solitude her disease; isolation his only source of peace.
