"You can't hold the torrent, Of salty water, Captive. You can't keep it all, Locked up, Inside. You can't stop the hidden, Tides from, Rising. So let go, Just cry." ))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) You are weak and snivelling A child just past its cradling Cry all you wish And I bet it won't change **** But I hear that voice Never before disturbed Asking for consideration From gods never heard. If I were a god I'd be embarrassed To have neglected such sweetness If I were a god I'd lie with the mud-crushed cretins. But I am no god And I cry At all the lost chances At all the children's lies.

Kids carry the brunt of the forebear's remorse.
