To Say
Where are the sofas from our childhood?
were the sofas ever unhappy?
didnât they ever want to run away?
what is the right thing to say
to my sister now she is happy?
what is the right
thing to cook when
my sister wants a meal?
what do I chop of when she
wants what she has given me back?
I am not saying any of this â
so why is she crying?
nothing is my fault, it doesnât
matter if I ever called her
bitch or she pretended
I was adopted.
nothing she says will make it untrue
that love sits on this sofa and becomes
her brother, deserving the plantain
our mother is cooking.
