Dearest Father
so many parental names
but you, steadfast
vigilant, fair, handsome
my parents share so many
valiant properties
today is your day
a flower, a pancake, a note
I love you beyond
what is known in biology
you are my tree
with my other parents
you are my tree of life
\
just you, my Father
hold me up and sent me forward
remind me of wood and squirrel
remind me of relationships that last
remind me of goals and family
not chosen from among those
at home
sought from the spring
of existence
found in the clutch of Earth's
immediate cache
I need you to fill out the
spectrum of device
our happy awareness of eachother
(P)(F)(D)(V)(M)(E)
finding love every day in the
existence of our family
everlasting string
winds us forever dearer
I was never not you
inevitable love
the material lasts and lasts
now we're two
separated
but only by illusion
my reality is you
Together, we celebrate every day
x
I am your tether to forever
our happy awareness of eachother
(P)(F)(D)(V)(M)(E)
finding love every day in the
existence of our family
everlasting string
winds us forever dearer
I was never not you
inevitable love
the material lasts and lasts
now we're two
separated
but only by illusion
my reality is you
Together, we celebrate every day
x
I am your tether to forever
I am your tether to forever
