sisssy is apparently snoring sissy is a parent

what is a parent

what is apparent
what is apparent
what is apparent

what pains on a parent
what pulls on apparent eyes which must be clothed wool and sheep's cries

boy who called boy
who called
boy
who called
wolf
who cried
sheep
who pulled wool
over her boy eyes

what is appalling
what is appalling
what is screaming

what is rolling down a soft and grassy hillside
a head ahead of the race

a blanket wrapping the body out of a bush
a race
to get to the top
to roll down
a head ahead of all the rest

what is a parent

a parent is some one thing river wrinkles lines sand
some two three four five ten fingers
that provides love & protection to a child

a child is a tiny god
who knows more in every breath than any apparent bone-eyed hope

a child is a flower whose aroma is so sweet
old people try to steal its stamen
to go fishing with such a nice lure

what is apparent
what is apparent
