The Real World
Look at the backdrop.
Watch as the infant's eyes drift.
My soul weeps for you.

The purpose of this piece is to give you the vision of a mother holding her infant as she shields it from the real world, only to weep in sadness for the inevitable. Hopefully you guys can see that in only 17 syllables!!!
