Getting a Ribbing

entry picture

A performance of equality-

when their eyes

are reflective of me.

When their way of life

or philosophy

might be something I dreamt up once

doing a cartwheel in primary.

 

Those beautiful lads of great design?

I made them in my leisure time!

If anyone's ribs came from

anyone's ribs-

their's came from mine. 

Equality

Thank you eveyrone, I really appreciate your comments. It is hard to get your head around making a man. Holding a baby, well that's one thing, but an actual man...mind blowing x
