Father, I don't know what to do about my child, My child is disobedient, My child is angry, My child repeats the same mistakes, My child resists correction, My child challenges authority, My child revels in the forbidden, My child is unrepentant, My child is willful and beligerent, As am I,....As am I,.......As am I,.....

Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday... My child learns the days of the week, as she intones them, again and again, she breaks the linearity of the square calendar page, Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday, and bending the line, ............................................Thursday ................................................................Friday ..................Wednesday .....................................................................Saturday ..........................Tuesday ...............................................................Sunday ............................................Monday She restores time to a circle.

After extinguishing the flame that ends The Day, we step outside, seeking you through the fog of our breath. Once you were worshipped, but we, followers of The One, honor the creator, not the created. Yet we bind our fortunes to you, as you grow and then fade, so we rise and then fall, and being diminished, watch with hope your renewal. Every cycle we return, sending blessings to you, leaping, leaping, leaping, to reach you, earthbound, we fall back, unjoined.
