My Other Mothers Had Sweaty Hands

My First Mother Had Powder Soft Hands
And That's All The People Will Let Me Remember
There Was More But There's Now More Than Years Between Us

My Last Mother Had Sandpaper Hands
And Clothes That Only Went As Far At 18 Months
So She Stood Rubbing A Baby Bump Into The Top Of My Head
