"i Want....."
Screeching their high piercing voices
Harmonically crying siblings huddle
Dominating
Manipulating
Producing their focus unpleasantly
Yet artfully
Dynamically
Their desires painful
…their new discovery for a toy
Conjured merciful knife-like screams
This …..Our children’s greed
Fueled by weakness within
Penetrating a caretakers soul
Acutely perceptive they knowingly outwit
Courage or no….caretakers want peace
Does spoiling children really matter
…..when one yearns for
PEACE AND QUIET?
