Do not cry, my child

We find ourselves

Running across

Mine fields,

Throwing our bodies

Against high wired fences

And bleeding out the victory

We so dearly deserve

But you,

And I,

We will dine on the table of

Chutzpah

And only glance

At the vertex of ignorance

Because you and I,

We are fighters who

Have never thrown a fist

In our lives

But we still run without moving

So that one day

The hay underneath our feet

Will be a blanket of grass.

So do not cry, dear child,

For it will only suffice

You for this one

Moment of time,

And soon,

We will snatch the fog

And find

The air.
