babies know what to do
at the Mellow Mushroom
rant and scream
mom's know, too
wisk them off to the restroom
firmly, with panoramic care
the TV’s know
what tune they play
Sponge Bob and ball games
and I am learning
to attend to my own business
yeah, real slowly, I am
read my magazine
about the Desert Fathers
waiting for my meatball hoagie
John the Dwarf, Abba Anthony
theirs was an interesting era
did nothing but toil
enjoyed their labor
no eye on the fruit
