My mother grew morning glories that spilled onto the walkway toward her porchBecause she was a woman with land who showed as much by giving it color.She told me I could have whatever I worked for. That means she was an American.But she’d say it was because she believedIn God. I am ashamed of AmericaAnd confounded by God.
