Now that you are empower’d
lady
let me rest
after your office
I know you will clean the house
cook my food (our)
clean my clothes
press my forehead
cool my heels
children I know you will manage
feed them well
dress them fine
bathe them nice
sleep them good
parents I know you got to be kinder
gift them stuff
bear them happy
salute the egos
fill the gaps
my finances can never go wrong
coz you are all-so-power’d
I am just resting fine
you are double the horse power
my mama ever had
honestly I can never say that
but good that you are em……..
and I helped build your confidence
though sometimes your over confidence
is irksome
really its too much
this over smartness
but I will play along
as long you don’t disturb
or ask unwanted questions
keep your voice low
dad is sleeping
after 3 hours of meditation
I too need some rest
some coffee please
I was waiting
dress down a bit, will you?
at your age!!!

I can relate to the ironic tone in these lines (my favorite part of this poem’s inner dialog):
“after 3 hours of meditation / I too need some rest”
