she had a tendency to do that
in order to survive
not have to face the pain
to lose again
important matters brushed aside
what’s important anyway?
stuff happens no matter what
she hasn’t got time for that
it’s a talent, really
glossing over everything
invincible to consequence
at her children’s expense
someone has to reap
whatever she sows
even though her selfishness
has a gloss of loveliness
poor children
dear children
“trying to gloss away
the irrationalities
of the universe”
