"PinkStruggle"

Pink struggle watches back with caring eyes and innocence
Pink struggle clutches back with grasping digits and laughter
squeals
Pink struggle a new joy a new test a new life
squeals
Pink struggle a new test of the universe

Unknowing
Released
squirming pink struggle struggles to live and to Live within without
squeals
squirming pink struggle struggles to think and to Think within without
squeals
Pink struggle laughs and plays and lives in thought
not yet entered into this world of physical reality

squirming pink struggle connects connections and begins to see
squirming pink struggle connects connections and begins to feel
squirming pink struggle connects connections and begins to sense

squirming pink struggle senses our reality and impinges its wishes
reality bends and streams, flickers and floats
the whim of the mind of a child
newly born.
