The Babe in the Alligator Pajamas
Iâve found the solution to my worries
Sadness, pain, self doubt,
loneliness are not felt in his presence
This smile, from the smallest of places,
banishes all negative thoughts
I am cured with a simple grasp from his hand
19 pounds of delight, little feet and tiny toes,
sculpted short arms, the ears of a four year old,
a pudgy tummy, and the biggest heart
With eyes round, mouth opened as wide as he can,
showing all six new teeth,
a loud laugh thatâs almost part squawk,
You canât help but fall in love from one smile
He has his motherâs eyes, her nose,
her smile, and playful spirit,
The spirit that is often hidden within,
buried beneath the layers of hardship and of past pain
He renews her and soothes my volatile heart
Iâve found my prince who fixes it all
A prince who wears diapers, cries on car rides,
And thinks my camera-and everything else-is a toy
And when I hold this baby,
this undeniable source of life, love and future,
It ALL makes a bit more sense

S4 L5 "He renews her and soothes my volatile heart" The mother and I are different people.
Sometimes I really think Hitler did achieve something? He forced even more morons to move around the planet in bigger herds to soil their wild oats fearlessly in the hopes of replacing all of those deaths, and hey, nucleur or not, families are the future, just look at all of those young leaping arab boys with c4, they have moms and dad's and twenty brothers because 19 will die along with the jews, somebodys got to do it, I mean my two kids are too chicken, they only know how to watch barney, fart, pee, eat, sleep, and do it all over again, and yours is still so small. Lets fool them as long as we can, okay, and hide the real world from them, that way we can stay on this island of safety and keep breeding FOREVER.
