we used to chant the above proverb during sunday school
alongside clumsy children in
brightly colored classrooms
studying men and their miracles
we remember sitting in the choir stand during service
ma catching our eye from the congregation
gesturing with two intertwined fingers
reminding us to cross our ankles
a young lady doesn’t sit with her legs wide open
train up a child
we were raised
cross ourselves into the smallest square inch
train up a child

Po'Chop is a missive to our younger self
