The Weight of Grahams
Mama began to laugh and shout while still aiming the gun at Smitty in what sounded like a native chant,
“NO FUCK YOU, SMITTY JOE, MAY YOU BURN, BURN, BURN, BURN, BURN IN HELL. LET THE GATES OF FIRE OPEN UP AND RECEIVE YOU….BURN SMITTY JOE GRAHAM, BURN!!!
Mama laughed while breaking into tears.
I hadn’t heard Mama speak like that in years. I believe we were all mixed up about Mama’s tears. The uncanny added laughter is what I think did it.
Uncle Ross took the gun from Mama as she broke from her trance and went to embrace both Isa and Me in her arms.
