a journey of awareness
Song: How Children LearnThey see the chalky bonesOf limbs split from treesAnd hear tortured groansOf wind against their knees.They fling themselves aboutThe darkest edge of earthAnd screech and romp and shoutIn games that mimic death.Their parents age and turnAgainst each other’s loveWith little left to earnWhen push comes to shove.[Disposable Poem April 9. 2013]Dr. Mike
Song: How Children Learn
ReplyDeleteThey see the chalky bones
Of limbs split from trees
And hear tortured groans
Of wind against their knees.
They fling themselves about
The darkest edge of earth
And screech and romp and shout
In games that mimic death.
Their parents age and turn
Against each other’s love
With little left to earn
When push comes to shove.
