002.5: MOTHER'S NEEDLES

Welcome to OLDER THAN I LOOK, a memoir podcast from The Lizzy Co Show. Episode 002.5: a short poem about knitting, envy, and growing up. (I used to watch my mother crafting on the couch, well aware that if I tried to get her attention she would be frustrated with me for breaking her focus.) - Read along here: Teach me that which steals your eyes from my face, This thing that overrules my every earnest case. What drug do your needles pour that I cannot overwhelm with my glowing teeth? I could be the best cigarette, if only you’d let me. A blade between your bones for all the times you bruised my skin, A silence when you cry out for comfort. Sky, be my own needle lancing lightning into those who strike me. Green sneaks into the beds of the trees, damp and surprising. - Theme song: “Controversy” by 40 Watt Hype This is a public episode.
