Our children live at home—
dreaming, planning, reaching, and working
within a reality of Pink Slips and Red Ink
meeting Maslow’s levels by
staying, sharing, settling, and waiting
Our children leave our homes—
dreaming, planning, reaching, and working
but return with Divorce and Failure
postponing their destinies by
bleeding, retreating, suffering, then healing
Our parents live at home—
yearning, coping, striving, craving
becoming our children by
needing, depending, trusting, and relenting
Our parents live in homes—
yearning, coping, striving, craving
relinquishing their destinies by
falling, breaking, suffering, dying
