The Maternal Instinct

Prologue can be found in the Note for Reviewers section.

Brush your hair

And pack your case for you

Not for fun

But cause I care for you

I do it for love

It’s what I’m subject to

If I do it enough

Perhaps you’ll turn out proper

Well save trips to the Doctor

Skip the Ayuaschsa

Rather go for Matcha


If there’s another way

Please let me know

Yes I do love you still

But I’m still someone other

Than a prodigal, sweet mother

(Watch this)


For instance, they call me a trad wife

Cause I often soften a man’s life

I sacrificed all of my damn vices

Only to end up in a bad crisis


Father hear me out

I’m in fear

I became the woman

You prepared

But there’s obstacles while in here


I need you to see them through

I could use a better view

Author's Note

Prologue: The vision aims to capture the maternal instinct in as many forms as possible. Whether it’s as literal as a mother tending to her children, or as metaphorical as a young woman learning about themselves in relation to the world, through service, sacrifice, and compassion.
