Chicken apple sausage

One side of the chicken apple

Sausage blistered badly

I forgot it a little too long

In the oil

I haven't eaten meat in a year

But tonight, I’m nostalgic

For a time, for a self

No longer here

When I used to be my mother’s daughter

And knew all her CD’s by heart

Sometimes when she felt like it

She would buy chicken apple sausage

That’s when I still held onto her

And also held my breath

Because any day now

she could be the mother

I would finally rest in

It makes me sad I can’t

Rescue that woman
