THE ATTENTIONThere's positive life forces: Nature, animals, children Grandchildren, art, music Sisters and brothers There's negative life forces: Smoking, coveting, cynicism Hate, sleeplessness, greed Criticism and disloyalty There's a child in this old lady: Smiling, tender, singing Innocent, dependent, ignorant Crying, laughing, loving Mommy and daddy There's a woman in this child: Survivor, stoic, understanding Intelligent, graceful, pretty Spiritual and believing There's the past it's not now: Good girl, incest, beaten Hiding, afraid, flinching Promiscuity and perseverance There's the now that's not the future: Questioning, thinking, weighing Initiating, protecting, staying Working and sleeping. 7/10/20077 2210 cj Vote for this poem
