Caveat Lector

Should one day slide past another
To be seen before it happens?

Should one life be lived in disregard

To what it is to be a mother?

Should many be without the means

To relieve anguish when life is hard?

Dire essence desires to depend

Should one leap to find a place

Surrounded by close friends, which seem

To have a face that shouldn't be so clean.
