If you bite ten fingers,
the degree of pain is
                                different
the feeling of pain 
the same....

Some people get lonely at college,
but I never really feel alone.
I have these critical parental voices
that always keep me company
and point out my mistakes....

GENES.

Galloping in body
Gain characteristics
Gear up heredity
Govern peculiar traits
Ground parental glimpses
Gaily offspring reflect
Gadget for legacies.

Public opinions that
Undermine the ground on which we walk
Bedeviled only be enticing jeers
Emotions that are vexing are laid-out with a cuss
Ranting &  raving "The world is out to get us!"
Taking in sustenance over parental spiels
You've not forgotten how it feels?...

Inquiring minds want 
To know how it all works

Ticklish subject
A question that can get your
Knickers in a twist
Especially if they look you in the eye
So, I suggest

Take them out for ice cream
When you get back defer to father/mother
Oh, parental duty..spare me!...

Sleeps till noon or later every single day
communicates in shrugs, mime "talk"
grunts, facial expressions and sarcasm.

Disagreeable to any parental suggestions 
Disagreeable to disagree with peach pie
and ice cream on a hot day in July

Disagreeable with hot chocolate in January's blizzard...

As I Walk in winters cold
children seek warmth
amid parental windbreaks
disrupted by winters harshness
school buses arriving late
as for the sighs I hear
maybe it's just the wind
or if possible
the sound of my heartache

Daniel, Christina, Christopher, Alexandria 
I love and miss you all....

She wore uncertainty on her shoulder
    hesitation held back her shoes
  Twitches split her left forearm
    these emotions seeped into their news

  Let him explain, she considered
    nerves of steel need not preparation...
  In the pit of a parental boardroom
    one word ~ eloped ~ sealed their doom...

INTRANSIGENCECapricious in opinion
Parental – High handedness
Work put in
By sentinel minions
Juggernaut enthused 
Serial circumstance
Discorded use. 	Abstinence!
Crushed!				UNDONE!
Inconsonance
I am slighted.  Rebuffed!
Disinherited
Urgency brings revolution
Insurgence
Of divine retribution.

End....

It is beyond certainty, 
that the public is no place for profanity. 
Using language that is obscene, 
is considered dirty and not clean. 
If you have a CD, 
with a parental advisory, 
then it is something you have to hide. 
Keep that filthy noise inside.

Giving alcohol to a hungry crying child instead of milk
Advising a teenager to neglect all parental advice
Unleashing so much anger when love is on public display
Courting the girl next door just to steal her puppy
Endless stupidity, heaping more stains on an already bad personality...

We are here to enjoy our children.
This is your life too.
Scolding, shouting, gritted teeth.
None of that is physically fun.
Let your lighter graces take flight.
Steer yourself and them into serenity.
Only into lunatic black holes
Can you come out the unexpected end where
Memories are forged in trust in the other....

N.B.: Four Kingdoms to represent four types of heart: Parental, Conjugal, filial piety 
(children’s love) and fraternal love.
My first try at this form,  inspired by Brian Strand....

No Times Ten ( No X 10 )                      

No idols
   No images
         No other gods
               No misusing God’s name                                                      No parental dishonor
No working too hard
               No lying
               No cheating
No coveting
No killing

With the presence of gravity
We seem to move on flat surfaces
Instead of curve surfaces
And we have no danger of 
Falling out and disappeared into space
A parental love
Is just like the force of gravity
Drawing us heartily close and tight
Freeing us from
Frights and nervousness
Tensions and pressures
Helplessness and disappointments...

A plan between two children
Needing parental approval

Outrageously wild ideas for the evening
Vigorous plotting and planning
Enthusiastic silly making
Resounding laughter

No one is allowed to sleep
Idyllic age of about twelve
Giggling long after bedtime
Happy to stay up long after parents retire
Thrilling to see each other at breakfast...

mama's an addict
papa's a thief
little child lost
can't find no  relief

they have signed away
their parental control
little child lost 
now under fostercare's patrol

will he make it through?
will he survive?
will he overcome the obstacles
and come out alive?

little child lost 
for him I will pray
that he'll grow up 
to be a good man one day...
