visceral, and so timely/timeless
Forgive my ignorance, but is this about the danger of cell phones to kids?
To me it extends far beyond that! I can think of so many scenarios that would apply word for word here. But I can see why you'd think cell phones as the topic, maybe that was the original inspiration?
Thanks so much, Melissa, for your response. It helps me not be embarrassed to ask.
The way this poem landed felt (and still feels) unbearably heavy. As it should.
'do the children dream / of sleep' The implications in those words, and in the whole poem
