Hey @fraze, thanks for commenting.

You know, the motivation /meaning and method of writing this piece would probably be a whole other article!

I actually wrote this many years ago and it's been languishing on my pad in the back of my wardrobe despite being, probably, the piece of poetry I'm most proud of. It's been really nice to get to share it on Steemit.

As it happens, I've had 3 kids since I wrote this, and I'm pretty sure my command of vocabulary has decreased now haha! I will certainly go and check out your posts too. Best wishes. :)
