sonnet X
they say it`s all the boomers and X`s fault-
into the wound they rub the salt.
we planted a seed and watched it bloom-
never expected any handouts upon a golden spoon.
we had to save real hard-
just to buy our very first car.
every day was lived hand to mouth-
to buy-and to furniture the house.
without technology we created our

THE VALUE OF X
I searched through and through just to find it.
Looked among varying variables, while holding my love's coefficients to multiply with.
I summed up my expressions, ready to find the term
that could be my constant, in the midst of the unknown.

A Tale From The Loom - VI to X

Each loving stitch sewn by her hand displays no sign of stress;
The time has come to greet her fate though not a hint of fret;
