“Mother Will Build the Wall…”

Until the passing of the husband She has no one else to sleep with in the lounge room

This house was once a woman

Nothing else to hold onto in both of her pockets

There but seen as fragments, with only a glimpse of her moving fingers circulating

Nothing else to cook other than Aldi’s microwaveable butter chicken

within the linear gaps in the kitchen cabinets

And nothing else to look after but her kids

And during dinner parties, her presence was frequently felt but left unnoticed; everyone else could smell the pungent aroma of her signature grandma’s chicken cooked in the oven But where is she?

Maybe the escapism never happened in the first place It’s left as a thought that swings by every morning breakfast, every dinner party,

Oven rang its alarm, leaving smoke throughout the entire house as the food got burnt

Instead, she reclaimed her land

And as everyone left the party, this house was once a wife

From the lands she felt confined

The wife who slept in the same bed as her partner

Offering a different treatment of power

[the bed one hundred people sat and spilled wine on]

of ownership

The partner people have their precedents of The wife who has always been referred to as his partner

every ironing session…

of belonging

[but never herself]

of watching

She was never known to be herself but merely an extension of her husband She was never the woman she used to be

Fuck the husband. Sorry. He’s dead. Of course, she grieved

She was a tool, an object

A faint memory,

The courtyard was a pausing moment

Maybe it was the gloomy grey bricks

There are some parts of the house that reminded her of home

It was the only time she could look straight at her kid's room at the back of the house without looking

Maybe it was the kitchen cabinets The courtyard

down Within the

gaps

The void of

The power vacuum

the stones

She was a mother, a pride of hers And when this house once used to be a mother At every dinner party, the kids would have a cheeky peek under the curtains, looking up to the silhouettes of people roaming around holding drinks With some uncontrollable laughter and high-pitched giggles

After all the courtyard is now a passing moment And in some living room somewhere, this house has its portrait hung upon the grey bricks of the walls that heard, And whispered, “Mother will build the wall…”

But between the blurry roaming crowds, the mother stood still looking down at the louver-shut windows, hoping to see a glimpse of her kids moving around She has her grips as stiff as muhammad ali, anxious as she couldn’t see where her kids reside within that separate building her husband designed The thought of escaping has always remained as pitches Could she escape? Did she really want to escape from that goddamn house?

As what is left for her is her love

Her world

Her kids

Loving unconditionally in a watch tower contained of voids, this house remains a woman, a wife, and a mother

This house is not yours. The uncanny arises in the compacted staircase and a door with a reflection of your psyche.

Perceiving a self-portrait in a property that isn't yours is unhomely enough to welcome you. But that alluring door handle tells you otherwise. This is an entrance that sparks a dilemma.
