Leaning On Dad
one thirty phone call
legless teenage son in need -
dad's taxi deployed
falling up the stairs
legless teenage son in need -
dad's support required
incoherent sounds
legless teenage son in need -
dad's patience tested
vomiting in bath
legless teenage son in need -
dad's memories stirred
falling out of bed
legless teenage son in need -
dad's muscles tested
sleeping in stupor
legless teenage son in need -
dad's constant vigil
long sleepless night
tired exhausted dad in need -
full day's work beckons
