Parent, Child, Moment, Poem

A parent.
The author of the beginning.
The dictator of the middle
The source of long-term therapeutic insight.

A child. 
A tabula rasa.
Instincts.
Pain.
The future author of another beginning.

A moment.
The thinnest radish slice.
Translucent liberation.
Inescapable infinitude.
Clear light.

A poem.
Literature's gummy worm.
Chewable, forgettable flavor.
A scented window to another middle.
The grandest parent.
A child's child.
A moment sandwich.
