american white noise

soaked in the static chatter
you’re the ellipse

of your mother’s life.
segue from her mother
into you, mother

seems an endlessly repeating
field of vision.
snow on a television

what can you pull
from those drifts of emptiness

    This is wonderful. It’d be interesting to see what your surroundings were when the words came to mind.
