I’m bringin’ home a baby,
……..(bumblebee)
she says. Won’t mama be
………….(so proud of me)
surprised? My eyes are
saucers
of sour milk, knowing
our whole world’s about
to crackle loose and buzz
into something else.
My bubblegum snaps with
knowing, tastes
like
shame.

A 4th Q44 for dVerse. I haven’t linked it up yet, cuz posting four on my own prompt feels a bit over the top. 😉

Love:
“knowing

Your title is so close to “bum bell.” 🙂
I feel that sadness when the bubble of childhood breaks like that.
Sad in Life
when expectations
become more than human..
when children are no longer
brought uP by village..
and raised.. instead
by bumble
bee
hard discs
of memories
etched online..:)
