Tea Stains MAG
I stare at the couch
still fragrant
from the tea
I once tumbled
over it
and you said
because it was so sweet
the stain
would never leave.
I stare at the couch
as you sit there,
Mother,
sipping the best
Indian tea.
This time I’ve added
a few extra sugar cubes
hoping
even after they come and
tell me the couch is empty
and make me swallow
hard doses of
lies that make one
forget
things.
Have you forgotten so soon, Mother?
The tea is warm;
please,
don’t leave.
