Pantoum-ime

Sinking into a pool of milk
holding a puzzle cube high
like the Terminator
and his iconic thumbs up

holding a puzzle cube high
declaring dominance over man
and his iconic thumbs up
we are always dwarfed by our children

declaring dominance over man
brow-beaten, shoulders sagging
we are always dwarfed by our children
if only we had the grace to submit

brow-beaten, shoulders sagging
sinking into a pool of milk
if only we had the grace to submit
like the Terminator
