We are Reminded

 we are but Carriers

that our children come Through us

not From us

Born of our Bodies

so hard to Fathom

their Well being

not entirely our Responsibility

No matter the Rational

championing personality, Independent Perspective

Free Will-

Deep down

in the very Fiber of our Flesh

We will Not let go

of what originated in our Bowel

Cannot but Feel bound

to their Existence

No matter the reasoning:

“They are their Own”

from the Cavernous depths

a Primeval utterance intones:

“They Are Mine”
