The mother of slain 6-year-old Zymere Perkins on Wednesday coldly recounted the fatal beating her lover delivered with a broken broomstick, and how she cleaned her child’s limp and unresponsive body, read the bible and did her makeup before carrying the battered little boy to the hospital.

In her third day on the stand in Manhattan Supreme Court in the murder trial of ex-boyfriend Rysheim Smith, Geraldine Perkins, 29, confessed that she stood idly by while her son endured the heartless beating that killed him in their Harlem apartment Sept. 26, 2016.

After a day without food or water — punishment for his supposed misbehavior — Perkins testified she found little Zymere rummaging through the trash for food.

“I heard him walking and going into the garbage bag, eating out of it,” Perkins said. “I thought it was a mouse.”

The next morning, Perkins said she was awoken by Smith yelling at her son for defecating in the living room and hiding it.

“He started to strike him with a broomstick, beating him from his chest to his legs with the broomstick,” said Perkins.

“'Why the f--k did you take a s--t? Why did you take a f-----g s--t in here? There’s a bathroom, you could have used the bathroom,'” she said Smith yelled at the little boy.

The beating intensified when Smith picked a screaming Zymere from the floor and brought him into the bathroom, where he waterboarded him before pulling down the shower rod and unleashing another beating.

“He was going limp, like unresponsive,” Perkins recounted.

He looked “like he was dead,” his mother testified.

Perkins said hours later she finally sought medical assistance for her son, who, she testified, she instinctively knew was dead.
