 Daddy, I Know Why

 

Carefully, standing

In the palm of your hands

I reached for the ceiling

Toward the distant lands.

 

Tiny feet held firmly

In the security of your love

I reached for the sparkles

Everyone, shining above.

 

One year old going on sixty

Arms forward in the sky.

My feet still planted firmly

Daddy, I know why.

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
