Yesterday, mother
Became a hunter.
There were no words
For what she was
Looking for.
Even her children were
Just strangers here,
Eating away their
Foreignness by forgetting
Memories meant to be alien and true
Amid aisles of stores
Who don't buy the change her family can bring.
She holds a pomegranate
and cries,
so close.
