Daughters

DAUGHTERS

I watch my daughters grow more beautiful
as my face begins to fall.
I see my son grow strong
as I begin to bend.
The sirens blare chased by an ambulance
a sober reminder of what is to come
to poets and tyrants alike.
Everything is in a state of entropy. Even time is
losing a step.
But the cat never seems to age a day.
