Abstract

What does it mean, and what does it do, to mother when you are not a mother? This chapter is an artful, speculative, and practical exploration of these questions. Reflecting on what becomes visible and doable when mothering happens “off the beaten path,” I re-define and re-envision mothering as I grow a clipping from my mother’s hydrangea. Turning to poetry and sketching, I tell together past, present and future. I pull together stories and bodies; languages and possibilities; the personal and the academic; expectations and desires. I think with Haraway and others about mothering, about kinning and responsibility. I cultivate possibilities, cleaving my experiences and desires, and settle it all in sun and water. I mother (as it grew); I grow (as it mothered), following roots/routes. I ken the future by caring for a little piece of the world and myself here and now—where and who I am.
