my mama, ama, and nainai

talking, in the house where my mama grew up 

and they continue to live 

and run the family business 

eating food my ama cooks

and has learned to cook from her mama and ama 

retelling and telling stories old and new 

about life in all it's funny, simple, and serious 

ups, downs, twists, turns

it's all so very 

simple
