    “Worst,” by Dorothea Lasky

    I am the worst kind of person
    Protecting my little male babies at every turn
    Motherhood is ultimately hard on the mother
    Green cherries hanging from the trees
    It’s by misspelling that I learn the real words

    Protecting my little male babies at every turn
    Green cherries hanging from the trees
    It’s by misspelling that I learn the real words
    I am the worst kind of woman
    Motherhood is ultimately hard on the mother

    Hard on the mother motherhood is ultimately
    Green cherries and the worst kind of woman
    I am my little male babies
    Only by protecting the words
    Only by misspelling do I learn the real words

    This is drawn from “Mother.”
