Muscle Of The Mind Poem by *Tony Cemaluk Egbuonu

Muscle Of The Mind

Mama, you saw, suffered, survived, smiled,
Mama, you sunk as sun March 5,2026, to see the Lord.
At 89. In victory.

Your six-year-old son snuffed your worry
over suitable honor for your sun-setted soul.
He is no longer six;
built you an institution;
gave you novel digital immortality.

Weakling? With muscle of the mind
will neither scatter, nor scuttle.
But will remain digitally document-immortalized.

REST IN PEACE. RISE IN LEGACY.
I AM CEMALUK.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
: This is a covenant. For Mama Cecilia who saw, suffered, survived, smiled, and sunk as sun at 89. From the six-year-old son who worried her, to the man who built her an institution and gave her digital immortality. They called it weakness. We answered with muscle of the mind. CEMALUK gathers. CEMALUK resets. CEMALUK is documented forever.
