Ok, this is a totally inaccessible piece. The important thing is that finally I finished it. And can now banish it out into the ether. Instead of embe dding the meaning in the poem (an idea I've rejected), and instead of explaining it, I'd be curious as to what others see in it. If you've read my work before, esp about my son, or read my bio, maybe you will "get" this. If not, I should work on it. Writing should be, after all, about communication. This poem is, by the way, NOT down on children, boys or girls. Now let's see -- I guess I need to get on the forum. I need to know: is there a way to view all pictures (vs poems) already posted, to avoid duplication? Because I have a special painting for this one, but wonder if I've used it already.
Julie, if you're going to make this a guessing game, my guess
is we're look at one son with many sides, many personalities.
Of course, I;m not a good guesser. If I'm any where close, it's
a helluva poem. -gene.
