You keep saying that you will have your license soon<\/p>\n
but your legs say otherwise<\/p>\n
your feet swell into pooling things<\/p>\n
the special socks barely help<\/p>\n
you say this because<\/p>\n
you’re sad<\/p>\n
and<\/p>\n
You feel like<\/p>\n
a burden to us.<\/p>\n
\n
But it is more that we<\/p>\n
your progeny, have done poorly at your tomb<\/p>\n
Our tensions have turned us from sculptors and guards<\/p>\n
into the ungrateful, the can’t be bothered.<\/p>\n
\n
I don’t mind driving you around<\/p>\n
Even though at 9AM I may grit my teeth<\/p>\n
and hope the AC is loud enough<\/p>\n
you can’t hear my sniffling<\/p>\n
\n
But<\/p>\n
You won’t ever need your license<\/p>\n
When the time comes<\/p>\n
I will carry you to meet God.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
