a song
Chorus (repeat after each subsequent verse):
I am a paper cup
Pills put in me each day
White as milk disposable
Sitting on a metal tray
I am my mother
I live to open cabinets
Fall asleep at half past six
Surf the chemical tsunami
Dad couldn't make her right
With money sex or kids
She couldn't handle pregnancy
So surfed the chemical tsunami
I walked with her in town today
Heard all her latest complaints
Broken feet and bad nurses
Soon I'll be making her speeches

"We believe that we invent symbols. The truth is that they invent us; we are their creatures, shaped by their hard, defining edges." - Gene Wolfe
