Mother 24th December 2018

You,

Yes you,

Do you know what medicine 

your mother takes, since when, what dosage, frequency?

Have you ever seen her delirious, staring at you with a faded smile but blank eyes?

Have you ever waited outside the critical care unit of a hospital 

while inside chemicals and machines worked its 21st century magic on your mother?

When was the last time you realised what you stand to lose is more than what will fit squarely in an econometric equation

And woke up shit scared soaked in sweat? 

You,

Yes you,

I am asking you !
