MOMMA IN MYKONOS

MOMMA IN MYKONOS

Marolina says, enjoy the room
my eighty two year old mother
lives on the first floor under your stairs
call on her if you need anything

Momma doesn’t understand our English
but most important that we understand
she could understand, but chooses not to

She also knows that her daughter
must rent the rooms above her head
but she will not look up
