Mother and Pancakes

I woke up Sunday morning,
my dad and sister made pancakes for the family.
My brother was impressed,
my eldest sister wasn't home.
I don't much like pancakes, I told my family.
"They are too flat."
"They are too circular."

she stayed home
The church couldn't help her.
The hospital couldn't help her.
The world couldn't help her.
I passed on the pancakes, so I could help her.
She was hungry.

Unstable

 The clouds are unstable So too are the waves But my faith is stable, solid. Rally and debate is unstable. Fire and Water too. But, God hold us safe.

Reach

 I both reach and retreat. I want you and want nothing to do with you. It is predictable that I both hate and love you. I want you near and must retreat. Like a civil war and trip to Disney Land. You are my contradiction Both push and pull. America, I pledge allegiance and protest you for being immoral.
