Eschatology

Posted on April 26, 2018April 26, 2018 by Brenna Lakeson in poetry, theology

What if I don’t meet my mother in heaven?

Digging my fingernails
into the moist dirt,
I find old things rotting
deep in the ground,
things I forgot
that I planted.
I root them out furiously
until my knuckles bleed
and mourn the empty holes
they leave behind.

Meet Brenna

I’m a sassy queer feminist raised in the South with the determination of Leslie Knope and the cynicism of April Ludgate.
