MOTHERING

 Super Moon
 
Where's the Warmth?
5.10.2020
3 a.m.
Its in the Thirties
 
  Our boiler is on a timer and turns off at 11 every night, doesn't go back on till after 5 a.m. It's frigid by 3 a.m. and wakes me up. That has to change. the building here can't stay at the required 68 degrees all night. I use my radiator heater but can't leave it on when I go to bed or the plug heats up dangerously. I've spoken to the Super but he has to wait for the plumber to make an adjustment and that's weekdays only. With the pandemic, the City agencies are overwhelmed and won't be any help. I feel guilty even complaining considering what others are suffering.
Meanwhile, Motherhood
 
It's just a beautiful statue
in Union Square Park
 
My own Mother is long gone and at Seventy Seven, I'm no longer even mothering  gardens, dogs or cats as i did for decades. Last year I posted an elaborate tribute that included poems from favorite poets and one from me, along with mothers mini-life story
