One Mother of a Revolution

I will disapprove of you staying out late
and
I'll stay up on the couch, waiting until you're safe


I will wonder if you're hanging out with the right kind of activists
and
I'll feed all your friends

I will cringe when you are awkward in public
and
I will be so damn proud of every step you take.

I will stand with you as long as I have feet
because
I danced in the street with you
