You do not know the wind blows <br />Neither will I tell you. <br />Not secondary to spite, I just don't speak the <br />Language of mostpeople <br />With all the yesirreebobs and lookieheerwutigots <br />You might have said the Moon orbits the Earth <br />Or some other nonsensical gobblediegoop <br />I have tried to teach you <br />To speak, <br />But mostly listen. <br />How can you eat the meat when you can't digest the milk? <br />One day you will learn the <br />ABC's. <br />I will continue to hold the flash cards <br />And in desperation you will see that <br />I was never meant to be your <br />Mommy.<br /><br />she is made of cigarettes and magic<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-long-and-the-short-of-it/
