Yeah, I couldn't totally understand what those lines about her mother meant either; I took it in its literal sence, that the speaker felt like her mother was not at all apart of her life and we all know how many hardships we faced during this age! But overall I liked the poem too:)Desiree Goodwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16258025717272431727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3989195930208285157.post-7994455405702380902008-04-21T17:20:00.000-07:002008-04-21T17:20:00.000-07:00I liked this poem as well.

Who can ever forget that part of life? It's so intense and chaotic. I'll admit I didn't read this poem enough times to identify what the repetition of "And momma's in the bedroom/with the door closed." might really mean. But it's sad because we at least see that her mother wasn't entirely there for her, maybe she was a bit inaccessable, or detatched. I liked your part about "between the firing of a gun and its explosion." good stuff.jgchurch111https://www.blogger.com/profile/00731884238195365586noreply@blogger.com
