Where Was Mindfulness?
Why didn’t they teach it in school?
Was it the paranoid right wing lunatics
Who were afraid their kids
Would become free?
Or were they just allergic to change?
Where was my mindfulness?
How did I miss so much?
How my mother was like
Mona Lisa with massage oil.
How my father made the roosters crow.
Where did I put the keys?
How could I leave the bags behind?
The present was always devalued
Just like a domestic beer.
