Quantum Dad, Quantum Lover <br /> <br />I exist in two places - <br />Behind these dirtfilled walls, <br />In the shadow of the Garambak Pass – <br />In the grime filled grind of dusty disillusion. <br /> <br />And the mattress wallow beside you, window cracked <br />To a robin’s song on the green green grass – <br />Where the boy fights bed-time, <br />And protests the injustice of an absent dad. <br /> <br />“We are a team” he says to you. <br />But don’t count me out – <br />Because when you take my measure <br />On the grainy feed of internet video <br />I snap back from my superposition. <br />To exist with you - alone. <br />The only matter <br />in the time we call this year. <br /> <br />DSA May '10<br /><br />David Abrahams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/quantum-dad-quantum-lover/
