Fourth Child
The part of me
That is quick and witty,
Decisive and efficient
Is Waiting now,
Hemming and Hawing,
Fixed in a chair
Or a series of chairs
With a glorious
Obsession positioned
Permanently
On my body.
A baby.
She has such exquisite need
Of me.
She is so gracious,
So grateful.
She is infinitely more important
Than the other things,
My work,
My calling,
My people.
-Peggy O’Mara
