  as if you know the story of wallowa lake
  leviathan first hid in the deep where her children sleep
  she kept them hidden from the plague
  but have you heard the story of my mother’s fate?
  she left us in detroit in the rain with a pillowcase
  fortune for the paperweight
  we followed her to joseph, near the ındian raid
  she wept among the weeds, hide and seek, for the fallen chief
  spathiphyllum on his grave
  and like the cedar waxwing, she was drunk all day
  we put her in the sheet, little wreath, candles on the crate
  as the monster showed its face
  as she waits for her children in the shade
  demogorgon or demigod the ghost parade
  no oblation will bring her back to our place
  she stayed within the deep end of wallowa lake
  the undertow refrained with the flame of a feathered snake
  charybdis in its shallow grave
  she gave us one last feature, the fullness of her face
  ın the shade of "hin-mah-too-yah" (red napoleon)
  as the demon took her place
  as we wait for the waters to reside
  her remarkable stoicism and her pride
  when the dragon submerged we knew she had died
