《Bathrooms, Superpowers, and Poetry》Ekphrastic: Lobster Heirloom

Lobster heirloom

The lobster speaks

with the voice of my mother.

She’s cold, at first,

but slowly, she warms,

as I hold her

to my ear. We speak

for a while

of nothing except life.

Her tail cups my chin

and her legs hug my skull,

and true to familial form

I find myself unable

to end the call.
